Together, we empower youth to realize their potential.
关于我们
Together, we empower youth to realize their potential. By creating professionally supported mentoring relationships, we defend that potential and build brighter futures. Founded in 1963, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Mass & Metrowest has supported children in our community through individualized mentoring programs for over 50 years. We reach the children who need us most through strong partnerships with local schools and youth development programs, and with the support of community volunteers, many coming from local colleges and corporations. Volunteers serve as mentors (Bigs) to children (Littles) who are living in poverty, come from single-parent households, or face other types of adversity. Bigs and Littles meet weekly for activities that might include working on homework, attending a sporting event, taking a hike or walk, cooking a healthy meal, doing a science experiment, and so much more. The essential activity is quality, uninterrupted time between a reliable, caring mentor and a child in need of additional adult support. Mentors are a consistent adult presence in the lives of mentees celebrating their successes, facing challenges with them and helping them reach their full potential.

We continue to be inspired by Bob Cousy's legacy of giving back! Learn more about how you can become a mentor with us here: https://lnkd.in/eG7fBavW
Bob Cousy has spent the majority of his 96 years giving back. You probably know him as a Boston Celtics legend, but there are a handful of men (and an entire organization) who also know him as a “Big”. Cousy has long been a supporter of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Mass & Metrowest, Inc. I got to spend a morning with him this week at his home and while you can clearly see all of his accomplishments hanging on the walls, including The Presidential Medal of Freedom, and a few NBA championship accolades??, the memories that brought the emotion were while recounting the relationships with his “Littles”. Sometimes you get just as much as you give when you lend someone your time. More to come on this in the months ahead, but Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Mass & Metrowest, Inc. is always looking for “Bigs”. https://bigscm.org #Mentoring #BBBS #Giving #Celtics #BostonSports Connie Askin Rich Terrio Courtney Thrun Nickerson Alyssa Jewell Boston Celtics Christian Megliola Jeff Twiss

Thank you to Dave Garvin, Manager of Workforce Programs and Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce for the chance to exhibit at the Game Changer event last Friday. The speakers and panel discussions were terrific! We had great conversations with schools, employers and area stake holders in workforce development around the great benefits of mentoring. If you would like to discuss how mentoring could elevate your training programs, we would love to talk to you! #BiggerTogether #BigsCM #mentorship #worforcedevelopment The Massachusetts Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development (EOLWD) #MassHire

Despite the rainy weather, the energy was high at the 34th annual Rodman Ride for Kids! ??♀? This year’s goal is to raise $100,000 to support our mission to provide mentorship to local youth. We’re thrilled to be almost 60% of the way there, but still pushing to reach our target! - Donate here! (https://lnkd.in/eEDwcB5X) With about 650 children currently matched with mentors and 100 still on the waitlist, your support is more crucial than ever. The funds raised will directly enhance our programs, empowering children with the guidance and support they need to thrive. Thank you to everyone who participated and continues to champion our mission. Read the article WCVB released about the Ride here: https://lnkd.in/eTfrVEiW
