Big Brothers Big Sisters of North Texas
Executive Summary
Thank you for your support of Big Brothers Big
Sisters. As a result of your continued support,
we are delighted to report that we experienced a
fantastic year of growth and increased efficiency.
2004 was a year that saw our agency serve more
North Texas children in safe one-to-one mentoring
relationships than ever before.
Through the collective execution of our mission and
operating plan, we achieved the following goals:
• Safety – We had an incident-free year both in
regard to the safety of the children we serve (no
incidents recorded between Volunteer and Child
relationships) and in regard to our employees’ onthe-job safety. Safety continues to be our first and
foremost priority, and we are proud of our record.
• Match Growth – Match Services were up 22.8%
from 2003 (4,493 in 2004 vs. 3,658 in 2003). This
growth cemented our place in the national picture
as the third largest agency in America and the
largest metropolitan agency in the association.
• Quality Control – Volunteer satisfaction scores
ranked our staff 4.7 out of 5.0 for Enrollment
Satisfaction of new volunteers and 4.5 out of 5.0 for
average Match Satisfaction. Our length of match
for Community-Based matches increased this year
from 20.4 months in 2003 to 21.6 months in 2004
and for School-Based matches it increased from
9.1 months in 2003 to 12.0 months in 2004.
In addition to the tremendous strides we made in
our program implementation through the year, we
were able to strengthen our balance sheet through
the concerted efforts of fiscal responsibility and
increased efficiencies. This positive trend is a direct
result of the bold move in 2003 to merge three
separate agencies into Big Brothers Big Sisters of
North Texas.
Through this merger, centralized leadership and
efficiencies helped our agency to finish the year
with a positive net operating surplus. Significant and
sustainable cost reductions of 14% were achieved
through increased savings which reduced our
overall cost per match by over $200 per match
($1,476 in 2003 vs. $1,272 in 2004). In 2004, our agency also developed a Strategic Plan
toward long-term, sustainable growth. This plan
was aligned with the National Strategic Plan to direct
our agency to serve 15,000 children in one-to-one
mentoring relationships by the year 2010. This goal
will ultimately assist in achieving the National goal of
serving 1 million children across the United States
by the same year.
In celebrating these victories, we are also keenly
aware of the fact that much work
is still ahead of us. The goals set
out in our Strategic Plan mandate
excellence in the years to come.
While we have achieved certain
milestones of credibility, the
children of North Texas call for us
to do more.
Even with annual match growth
over 20%, our waiting list of children
continues to climb as a result of
our services being in high demand
from our communities and families.
The successful implementation
of targeted recruitment efforts
and marketing endeavors toward
potential volunteers in 2005 is
critical to addressing this growing
concern.
Frank Bracken
2004 Board Chair
Rob Roby
2005 Board Chair
The importance of sustainable
T. Charles Pierson
revenue generation in 2005 will
CEO
be highlighted through a focused
effort on Individual Giving, Major
Gifts and Planned Gifts. A coordinated endeavor by
all Board and staff members in 2005 will be required.
Finally, 2005 will be a significant year for our agency
in regard to our implementation of new Technology
and Facilities plans. In order to successfully achieve
our strategic growth goals, the execution of a new
technological infrastructure is essential to our
overall success. In addition, the evaluation of our
current facilities is underway as we work to realize
even more efficiencies in the future. These plans
are critical to the foundation of future growth and
greater efficiencies in operations.
It will take all of us to realize the vision of this plan,
and it will also require us to recruit many more who
share our vision of improving our communities one
child at a time. In the end, this mission to empower
a child to reach their highest potential will result in
seeing a “Little” go a long way.
Thank you for your support of Big Brothers Big
Sisters. It is an honor for us to serve as your Board
Chairs and Chief Executive Officer.
Sincerely,
Frank Bracken

Programs
A Little Goes A Long Way
Big Brothers Big Sisters
Community-Based Program
Volunteers known as Big Brothers or Big Sisters are matched with a Little Brother or
Little Sister. These Bigs and Littles spend time together having fun and making memories
by enjoying everyday activities two to four times per month. The relationship is based
on a classic one-to-one relationship between an adult and child, where new experiences
and mutual activities help the Little to become more self-confident, do better in school
and enjoy time with a new friend in their life. In addition, the Big Couple and Big Family
programs offer variety to community-based matches allowing spouses or entire families to
join in the relationship.
School-Based Program
The School-Based Program was established to give an opportunity to potential volunteer
Bigs to be matched with a waiting Little in a local school. One hour per week, two to four
times a month, the Big engages in various activities with the Little such as going over
homework, throwing a ball, eating lunch on the playground or just spending an hour
sharing stories at the school.
High School Program
The High School Bigs program is designed for teen volunteers (minimum age 16) who
want to share their experiences and friendship with a Little Brother or Sister. These
matches can be established in either a Community-Based or School-Based setting where
both Big and Little build self-confidence and self-esteem while creating new memories
together.

beneficial to both Big and Little.

“My match is great and I love my Big Sister. We always do things I would have never thought I could do. One day I hope that I can be as good a Big Sister as Kelly.”
Little Sister Cedrica (matched for 4 years and 8 months)
“Even though I have learned a lot of new things and gone to some new places, the best part of
having a Big Brother is having a special friend to do things with. I once told the BBBS office that
the first year I had a Big Brother, it was the best year of my life! Now I think these have been the
best four years of my life!” Little Brother Johnny (matched for 4 years)
