Report To The Community - Big Brothers Big Sisters

Report
To The
Community
The mission of Big Brothers Big Sisters of North Texas is to enrich,
encourage and empower children to reach their highest potential
through safe, positive, one-to-one mentoring relationships.
Executive Summary
We hope you’ve enjoyed reading about
the amazing story of Ray and Carlos. It
illustrates the positive, life-changing power
of one-to-one mentoring that can occur
through a relationship between a child and
a caring adult.
As the nation’s leader in one-to-one
mentoring for 102 years, Big Brothers
Big Sisters is proud to have served 5,303
matches like Ray and Carlos last year in
North Texas. At BBBS, we believe that
every child has the right to enjoy all that life
has to offer and the potential to fulfill their
dreams. We know that children can achieve
their potential when adults care enough to
be involved through a positive relationship.
We are proud to share with our community
that our services (one-to-one matches)
were up again this past year by 18% and
by a total of 56% over the past three years!
And we are proud to report that we have
improved our safety and quality of service
by increasing the length of our match
relationships and decreasing the time that
our children wait to be matched.
In addition, the Volunteers, Children and
Families that we served have rated the
quality of our program services so highly
that BBBS of North Texas was named as
one of the Top 25 Quality Programs in
the United States out of 477 Agencies
across the countr y last year!
We have been equally focused on improving
our efficiency. Over the last three years we
Total Children Served Big/Little Matches
2005 – 5,303 (18% increase over 2004)
New Big/Little Matches
2005 – 2,282 (16% increase over 2004)
have decreased our cost per
match by 28%. This means
that we are using community
dollars as prudently as possible
to serve more children while
improving our safety and
quality along the way.
Rob Roby
2005 Board Chair
All of these efforts resulted in
Charles Pierson
our Board of Directors being T.CEO
named as 2005 Board of
the Year by Big Brothers Big Sisters of
America! Congratulations and thank
you, Board Directors!
As we move into 2006 and beyond, our work
is only just beginning. Did you know that a
recent study showed only 40% of children
can name three or more adults who care
about them. Is it any wonder that over
40% of the students in our major ISD’s are
dropping out of school? Is it any wonder
that over 70,000 children in our North
Texas community have at least one parent
in jail?
Mentoring works! Just ask Ray and his
mother Bose.
A recent study that occurred over 20
years demonstrated that 87% of atrisk children with a Big Brother or Big
Sister in their lives graduated from
high school!
For those of you who have supported our
program as a Big Volunteer, as a Board
Member, as a Parent, as a Child, or as a
Financial Supporter, we want to say “Thank
You” for making a Big Difference. For
those of you who have thought about being
involved, we want to encourage you to
start today and watch and enjoy how your
contributions can help a Little go a long way –
just like Ray.

Projected
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 match is based on a classic one-toone 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 communitybased matches allowing spouses or entire families to join
in the relationship.

School-Based Program
The School-Based Program provides an opportunity for a volunteer Big Brother or Big Sister to be matched
to a 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 Little Sister. These matches can be
established in either a Community-Based or School-Based setting where both Big and Little build selfconfidence and self-esteem while creating new memories together.
Amachi - Texas
The Amachi Texas program provides mentors to those children with a parent or family member in prison,
on probation or on parole. The Amachi Texas program ensures that these children will benefit from the
interaction of having an additional caring adult in their lives. This program is a joint initiative of the Office
of the Governor, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, OneStar Foundation and BBBSNT.

This program matches Littles with an interest in
the outdoors with caring adults who want to “pass
on” their passion for the outdoors. Hunting, fishing,
shooting sports, water sports, hiking, camping, bird
watching are just a few of the options that let the
Little enjoy the wonders of the great outdoors.
