Welcome to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Bermuda! BBBS Bermuda is a mentoring program dedicated to helping children and youth, primarily from single parent homes, realize their potential by facilitating the development of long-term one-to-one relationships. How does it work? We match a child with an adult mentor - a positive role model and friend. This means that we match the specific strengths, interests, and abilities of the volunteer to the needs of the child. The volunteer, known as a "Big", spends a minimum of three hours a week for at least one year with their "Little" by helping them build personal values such as self-esteem, self-respect, and respect toward others. Benefits to the "Big" - besides an incredibly rewarding experience, there is personal fulfillment; a sense of contributing or giving back to the community; the opportunity to share wisdom and experiences, and the joy of encouraging and inspiring young people.
