Why Give

Giving Starts With You

Every gift — whether time, money, or advocacy — fuels one‑to‑one mentoring relationships that change lives. When you give, you instantly become part of the Big Brothers Big Sisters family.

Why Your Gift Matters

Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Piedmont is one of the largest and most effective youth‑mentoring organizations in the state. Your support powers the people, systems, and technology that make safe, lasting, professionally supported matches possible.

Your donation helps:

  • Create and sustain mentoring relationships
  • Support children facing adversity
  • Equip mentors with training and guidance
  • Ensure every match receives ongoing professional support

We measure our impact continuously, and we hold ourselves accountable to the outcomes that matter most for youth.

What Your Gift Supports

Our work is focused on putting children on a path to lifelong success. Your donation helps us drive measurable outcomes in three key areas:

Educational Achievement — better grades, stronger school engagement

Avoidance of Risky Behaviors — especially juvenile delinquency

Higher Confidence & Social Skills — improved self‑esteem and stronger relationships

These outcomes are tracked through surveys, report cards, and developmental asset measurements — giving donors confidence that their investment is making a real difference.

Your Impact in the Community

Every donation stays local and directly supports youth in the Central Piedmont. Your generosity helps us change perspectives, open doors, and give children the opportunity to achieve great things.

Without donor support, none of our mentoring services would be possible.

We take stewardship seriously. Big Brothers Big Sisters has been recognized nationally for accountability and efficiency, and we make our financial statements available to anyone who wants to review them.

  • National Recognition — Awards for transparency and effectiveness
  • Financial Reports — Open access to our audited statements

This commitment to honesty and clarity is part of who we are.
