Wildfires are devastating communities across California, causing more than 300,000 people to evacuate their homes and threatening many more. The Camp Fire in Northern California -- one of three blazing across the state -- is the most destructive in state history. We want to ensure that, if you are in an affected community, you find access to shelter. And if you are looking to help with disaster relief efforts, you know the most effective ways to contribute.
Our mission: Big Brothers Big Sisters of Washtenaw County aims to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported 1-to-1 relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.
How you can help: Kids in our community are waiting for their mentor, their Big. Becoming a Big Brother or Big Sister is one of the most enjoyable things you’ll ever do. Not to mention, one of the most rewarding. As a Big, you have the opportunity to make an enormous positive impact in the life of a child. Your guidance and understanding can help a child believe they can have a brighter future by empowering them with the tools and support they need to reach their full potential. And the best part? It’s actually a lot of fun!
