Welcome to BVI

Big Brothers Big Sisters

Big Brothers/Big Sisters of the B.V.I. strives to have children reach their potential through one-to-one relationships with positive role models. Children benefit from knowing they have adults they trust and can turn to for encouragement and support. Becoming a mentor is fun and rewarding. Get involved; become a mentor; the rewards are endless!

“Being a Big gives me a sense of personal satisfaction.
It makes me feel good to know that I am able to be a positive
influence in molding the life of a young person.”

Marieta Headley to Little Sister Amanda

Our Impact on Children

Our program has been building treasured memories through friendship with children of the British Virgin Islands for the past nine years. Bigs and Littles create memories that last a lifetime. Our aim is to continue to promote positive growth in the key areas of the child-volunteer relationship by using available resources in the B.V.I. Research on our program has revealed, lasting impacts mentoring has had on our children's lives. Children matched with Mentors in our program are:

  • Less likely to become involve with drugs and illegal activities
  • Get along better with family and friends
  • Are more confident
  • Do better in school
