​IT'S  NOT  JUST  A  DONATION.
​IT'S  AN  INVESTMENT  IN  A  CHILD'S  FUTURE. 

​Research shows that our mentoring works. Children with a Big Brother or Big Sister show real differences in their personal and academic lives. They are more confident in their schoolwork performance and get along better with their families. 
94% of every dollar you donate goes directly to making and supporting matches. The remainder covers overall program administration.
​
Support from individuals like you is vital to provide mentors for children in our community. There are no fees for our services and all of the people who serve as officers and members of the board do so voluntarily. Big Brothers/Big Sisters are all volunteers and the agency employs a small professional staff. ​​

OUR COMMITMENT TO OUR DONORS 

We will not sell, share or trade our donors' names or personal information with any other entity, nor send mailings to our donors on behalf of other organizations.
​
This policy applies to all information received by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Marquette & Alger Counties, both online and offline, on any platform, as well as any electronic, written, or oral communications.
​
To the extent any donations are processed through a third-party service provider, our donors’ information will only be used for purposes necessary to process the donation.

"Having Avah as my Little has changed my life in so many positive ways. While I mentor her she has taught me to be more patient, relaxed, and to enjoy the moment. We have so much fun together and we make each other laugh. Avah is a kind soul always willing to lend a hand. She is my Little for life!"
