Our Mission
Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Peninsula, Inc. has vitally contributed to children in our community for over 30 years. Founded in 1969, our unique, non-profit organization maintains a mission to assist children in achieving their highest potential by providing acceptance, friendship, and understanding through a positive one-to-one mentoring relationship with a caring adult.

Our Work
We match boys 6-12 years old and girls 6-15 years old with caring, adult mentors who share similar interests and personalities. Our BIGS and LITTLES meet several times each month to do things that are mutually fun and interesting from baking cookies to playing basketball.

Our Programs
To meet the different needs of our community, our agency offers specialized programs:

1. Traditional Program – our signature program matches children with same-sex mentors who share similar interests and personalities.

2. School Program – a tutoring program designed to improve academic performance, social and emotional growth, and self-esteem in children. The BIG meets with the LITTLE at his/her school for 1 hour each week during the academic school year. They may read, study for tests, share stories, play board games, or eat lunch together.

3. Alpha Phi Alpha Program – a mentoring program pairing African American males to function as role models for African American boys.

4. Faith-based Program – a unique program targeted to match children with local church members in one-to-one mentoring relationships.
