WELCOME TO BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS

OF WILL & GRUNDY COUNTIES

We nurture children and strengthen communities.

And we couldn’t do any of it without you!

Founded in 1970 our Big Brothers Big Sisters chapter has helped thousands of children in Will, Grundy, Kane  Kankakee, Kendall as well as 6 other counties.  BBBS operates under the belief that inherent in every child is incredible potential.

BBBS is the nation’s largest donor- and volunteer-supported mentoring network – we make meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”), ages 6 through young adulthood in communities across the country. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.
