Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby and Darke County continues to focus
on our mission to provide children facing adversity with strong and
enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change
their lives for the better, forever. Our vision is that all
children achieve success in life.
The after-school mentoring program, “Big Buddies” launched the
2011-2012 school year with 128 high school volunteers. Buddy
programs are established in Longfellow, Northwood, and Whittier
elementary schools in Sidney, as well as, Woodland Heights Elementary
School in Greenville, and Versailles Elementary School in Darke
County. As in past years, the program continues to promote social
and educational enhancing activities, as well as, personal
safety. In 2011, the agency closed out the year serving a total
of 139 children through our core community program.
