Dear Friend,
Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities brings children together with
mentors who open children’s horizons to opportunities they may not even have
considered possible. We couldn’t do it without you.
While growing up in any circumstance presents its own set of challenges, growing up
without a parent or mentor presents overwhelming hurdles that can lead to lifelong
struggles and pain. Each time Big Brothers Big Sisters pairs a child with a mentor, we
start something big: a one-to-one relationship built on trust and friendship that changes
children’s lives for the better, forever.
Gloria Lewis,
President & CEO
2011 was an outstanding year for our organization! Our continuing, unwavering
emphasis upon education is reflected in the year’s results: 70% of our Littles improved
their academic performance and our high school seniors graduated at a 40% higher rate
than the state average based on the demographics of youth in our program.
In addition, our Education and Enrichment Program has now helped send 177 students
to college. Seventeen of our students were awarded Annexstad Scholarships in 2011
allowing them to attend a four year university. Our first Annexstad Scholar graduated
from college and is now pursuing a Masters Degree at DePaul University.
Beth LeBreche,
President, Board of Directors
For the year, our mentoring programs served 2,950 Little Brothers and Sisters. And
our 3,400 volunteers – including board and committee members, interns, AmeriCorps
members, Everyday Advocates, and volunteer mentors – contributed 112,425 hours.
Last but not least, our Board of Directors continues to guide our efforts ensuring
Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities remains focused on its mission and
functions as a highly effective, fiscally responsible and transparent organization.
The articles and figures in our 2011 Annual Report share some of our most significant
accomplishments for the past fiscal year. We invite you to share them with others and
spread the message of hope we are imparting to children and youth. Thank you for all
the gifts you give throughout the year—including your time, talent and financial support.
Warm Regards,
Gloria Lewis,
President & CEO

Angel & Carlos
MATCH PROFILE
LITTLE BROTHER:
Angel, age 10
BIG BROTHER:
Carlos, College Student
HE’S A LITTLE BROTHER BECAUSE:
HE’S A BIG BROTHER BECAUSE:
His father lives in Mexico, which
caused his mother, Yolanda, to
enroll Angel in Big Brothers Big
Sisters. Angel’s cousins were in the
program. “We noticed it was good
for them, so we wanted to try it.”
“I always wanted an older brother.
I had a rough adolescence because I
didn’t have guidance. Now I can make
a difference in someone’s life. It’s like
paying it forward in a different way.
Even though it wasn’t done for me,
I would like to do it for someone else.”
ABOUT HIS BIG BROTHER:
“The thing that I like most about
Carlos is he is CREATIVE! He is
nice, very smart and helpful with
homework.”
ABOUT HIS LITTLE BROTHER:
“Angel gets along with everyone.
His biggest strength is that he is good
with new ideas.”
THE MATCH :
In addition to homework, Angel and Carlos invent all sorts of games during their
time together. They have taken this creativity to the next level by writing and
illustrating a book of their favorite games. This shared creative strength has been
the foundation for their long-lasting mentoring relationship.
Angel and his Big Brother, Carlos Espinosa, have been matched for three years
and were named the School Based Match of the Year for 2011.
“Angel enjoys the company of his Big Brother and help with his
homework. I recommend the program because Big Brothers Big
Sisters helps kids get smarter and provides good role models.”

MATCH PROFILE
LITTLE SISTER:
Kayliana, age 9
BIG SISTER:
Louise, Program Director
SHE’S A LITTLE SISTER BECAUSE:
SHE’S A BIG SISTER BECAUSE:
Kayliana lives with her
grandparents and sister. Over a
year ago staff at Kayliana’s school
approached her family to see if she
would be interested in enrolling in
Big Brothers Big Sisters. Kayliana’s
grandmother decided that “it
would be good for Kayliana to
have a positive role model.”
“Being a Big Sister is fun for me,
and it’s made me a better person.
I see the power of mentoring. It is
a traditional practice in the Native
American community. We know that
it works.”
ABOUT HER BIG SISTER:
“We’re both Native American and
we both like cats! I know she likes
me because she smiles and shows
me pictures of her family.”
“I hope that this
school year we can
teach each other to
do new math lessons
or Ojibwe speaking.
I’d also like to teach
Louise to knit.”
–Kayliana, age 9
ABOUT HER LITTLE SISTER:
“Kayliana is personality plus – very
friendly and enthusiastic. She is
also very bright. She has a great
vocabulary and loves to read. She
loves to play games, do crafts, and
play outside.”
THE MATCH :
Kayliana and her Big Sister, Louise, are approaching the one year anniversary of
their match. The two have found a common bond through their Native American
heritage that has resulted in a meaningful mentoring relationship.
Louise Matson is a 2011 inductee to Mpls.St. Paul Magazine’s Volunteer Hall of
Fame. She has been a Big Sister to three Little Sisters over the past nine years and
was a Big Sister of the Year in 2003.
“Ever since Kayliana has been involved in Big Brothers Big
Sisters she jumps out of bed and is ready to go to school every
day. Last year, she had perfect attendance in school and got a
plaque of recognition.”
–Kayliana’s grandmother

wants to help people move in the
right direction.”
“Antwan made the decision and took
action to change his life. Being part of
that is priceless.”
THE MATCH :
Bob and Antwan have been a match for nine years. They enjoy a wide range
of activities from the pure fun of laser tag to the serious (but also fun) work of
participating in the Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) Youth Leadership Council. In
spring of 2012, Antwan will graduate from high school and enter college in the fall.
Bob Oliker was so inspired by his experience as a Big Brother that he joined Big
Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities’ Board of Directors. He serves on
two committees and is the Board Secretary.
“Antwan started to believe he could go to college when he
attended the BBBS Annual Meeting. He then attended a number
of Education and Enrichment college workshops and went on
a Bigs Brothers Big Sisters trip to Atlanta to visit five colleges.
All of that was huge. I am proud to say that he has enrolled in
North Hennepin Community College.”

2011 PROGRAM SUMMARY
Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities serves its mission through a wide variety of programs and
services designed “to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally
supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.”
Our core programs and services include:
Community-based Mentoring Program
Matches spend time together two to four times each month (for a minimum of four to
eight hours each month) engaging in a variety of activities such as sports-related outings
and recreation; educational or community service sessions; or artistic or crafts exploration.
2011 BY THE NUMBERS
Site-based Mentoring Program
TOTAL MATCHES
Matches spend time together for a minimum of at least one hour every week during the
school year at one of our 22 metropolitan partner schools (or in another BBBS/school
arranged supervised setting), engaging in a variety of activities—working on homework
or playing board game or on the computer—that build and nurture a relationship.
Big Brothers Big Sisters has developed the following special focus initiatives, most of
which are open to participants in our Site- and Community-based programs and intended
to support all children in reaching their potential.
Education & Enrichment
To encourage high school graduation,
career exploration, and promote
postsecondary educational opportunities,
we offer in-depth, interactive visits to
corporations and nonprofits; career
fairs; community service and leadership
opportunities; one-to-one and workshopbased assistance supporting college
applications, financial aid, and scholarship
search and access process; and visits to
two-and four-year institutions.
Wellness for Life
This initiative, focuses on linking youth,
their families, and mentors to education
and activities that support health and
wellness. Program goals include 1) model
healthy eating through education and
healthier food choices at BBBS events and
activities; 2) encourage physical activity
by offering no/low-cost fitness activities;
3) facilitate access to community health
and wellness resources and provide
wellness education sessions; and 4) use
the mentoring relationship to reinforce
positive health behaviors.
Mentoring Children of Prisoners
Approximately 15,000 Minnesota children
have a parent or significant family member
incarcerated. Through no fault of their own,
these children face many negative impacts
that may lead to an increased likelihood
of substance abuse, school truancy,
criminal activities and violent behaviors.
We are a national leader in providing and
supporting mentors who can help mitigate
these negative consequences.
Beyond School Walls
Big Brothers Big Sisters newest
mentoring model, Beyond School Walls
is a Site-based mentoring program
conducted in partnership with selected
area corporations. Carlson Companies
and Comcast are our inaugural partners,
bringing students from Minneapolis’
KIPP Stand Academy to their corporate
headquarters for mentoring activities.
General Mills is the most recent
corporation to join this effort, with a
Beyond School Walls program that will
launch in Fall 2012.

Big Brothers Big Sisters’ vision is that
all children achieve success in life.
www.bigstwincities.org
For more than 100 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the
ability to succeed and thrive in life. As the nation’s largest donor and volunteer supported mentoring network,
Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children
(“Littles”), ages 6 through 18, in communities across the country. We develop positive relationships that have a
direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.
