Community Partners

Do your community a service. Start a community partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters. Community partners make an impact close to home by supporting local youth. Plus, partners can build teamwork and loyalty among employees or members in the process.  Partners may provide financial support and/or in-kind donations, sponsor fund development events, encourage volunteer mentors, host match events- just to name a few ways to get involved. 

To find out more about a community partnership, please contact Lindsey Douglas, Resource Development Director, at lindsey@bbbshr.org or 540.433.8886.
