Phenomenal organization. Yes they are understaffed with a long waiting list, but they are not the only game in town, reach out to your local church to see if they can hook you up with a good mentor for your child if they are in great need. Being a Big has changed my life, my Little is so strong and so kind after all she has been through. I can't recommend getting involved highly enough.

I went through the interview process and got a good recommendation sent. I was doing inner city youth outreach at the time and was looking to do BBBS. They rejected me and ironically, years later, I adopted as a single parent. I used to advocate and recommend this organization but now I realize that not all are welcome to be BB or BS.

I've been a Big Sister for more than 4 years and it has been a great experience. The staff at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee has been dedicated to making my match as fruitful as possible. If you're interested in becoming involved with BBBS, they will find the opportunity that best fits your time and desired impact. I'm grateful we have an organization in Nashville that's so deeply dedicated to lifting up our community!

5 years ago I felt compelled to make a difference in helping teens avoid bad decisions and make a successful transition to adulthood. I realized that a mentorship was the most effective method for me. I signed up with BBBS and went through their interview and training process. It was thorough, but I respected them for it. I've now been matched with a "Little" for over 4 years. He's about to graduate from high school and go to college. I couldn't be more happy with BBBS, the staff, and the programs they put in place. Every interaction has been positive. They sincerely have a heart for this cause. They give you the support to succeed and encouragement to feel competent in your Match. They produce a constant supply of resources, events, and information to make this a rewarding experience for both you and your Little. They always need volunteers for a variety of opportunities and I would passionately encourage anyone to give them a call.

Enroll between 6-16, but a match can last till the child graduates high school.
