Imagine who they will become because of you. Here at Big Brothers Big Sisters Wellington, we don’t believe that our "Bigs" create potential in their "Littles" - they simply defend it. Potential is everywhere, in every kid - and by meeting with a child for one hour, once per week, our mentors enable their mentees to reach their goals & pursue their dreams. Our vision is that all youth that need a mentor, have a mentor. Our mission is to make a positive difference in children’s lives through strong, enduring mentoring relationships. Big Brothers Big Sisters is both the world's and New Zealand’s largest mentoring programme. Since launching in 2018, our Wellington branch has provided support to several local tamariki by matching them with “Bigs” (mentors) who commit to spending quality time with them every week. Our mentors help kids reach their potential in leadership, education, and employment through professionally supported, one-to-one relationships. And it works! Through participating in our mentoring programme, research shows that “Littles” are more confident in their school work, able to get along better with their families, more trusting of others, and more likely to avoid illegal/risky behaviour. Donate today & you too can defend a local kid’s potential!
