Please help support the youth in our community who look to a Big Brother or Big Sister mentor to be there for them no matter what. Your donation goes directly to Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Gulf Coasts's mentoring programs. I appreciate your support!

Take Little Brother Jacob and Big Brother Michael (pictured above) for example. They are a local match in Mobile, Alabama. Big Brother Michael joined BBBS in 2014 through our longtime corporate partnership with Wilkins Miller. Michael was matched with Little Brother Jacob, who was struggling with school and self-confidence. Over the years, Jacob’s grades gradually increased, and he is now averaging a “B” in math. This is an incredible accomplishment for him. In addition to improving his own academic success, Jacob feels more confident and is navigating his future with Big Brother Michael by his side.

What is the BIG Give?

The BIG Give is one of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Gulf Coast's largest annual fundraiser and plays a vital role in carrying out our completely donor-supported mission year-round. It's an online, peer-to-peer fundraiser and has an in person celebration. 

We challenge each Big to create a fundraising page and raise $100+ for each year they have been matched. Our overall fundraising goal of $30,000 will help new kids realize their potential and build their futures, support existing Matches, and allow graduating seniors to receive scholarships from the Mike Lapeyrouse Scholarship Fund.

Every dollar counts and don't worry if you can't make it to the celebration! We'll celebrate you regardless. Join us in being Defenders of Potential. We couldn’t do it without you.
