Dare to be a kid again.

Big Brothers and Big Sisters is all about the power of friendship and fun. You don’t need special skills, tons of time, or children of your own to be involved. You just have to be willing to be a kid again.

78% of kids with mentors go to college, more than non-mentored kids from average households. So come on. Having fun with kids makes a huge difference.

Find out how easy it is to be a mentor.

The Magic of Mentoring

Something amazing happens when kids get a mentor. 91% feel better about themselves. 76% do better in school. 82% make better connections with adults, and 90% get along better with their peers.

We work hard to connect your kids with the best mentor for them. That way they have fewer obstacles to keep them from reaching their dreams.

Discover the process and benefits of matching your child with a mentor.

Mentoring Makes People Beautiful

Look at the smiles, the joy and the goodness that comes out of people sharing their lives.

From Bowl for Kids to our Annual Picnic, we’ve got events throughout the year that bring the people of Stratford together.

Check out our photo gallery to see more beautiful people.

Invest in Stratford’s Future

Mentoring doesn’t just benefit the kids and mentors who participate in our relationships, it improves our companies, our schools and the future of our community.

It costs us $1253 to provide the administrative support for each of the 300 kids we serve in the Stratford area. Your donations make a tangible difference in all our lives.
