WHO ARE WE?
Yavapai Big Brothers Big Sisters was founded in
Prescott Arizona in 1971. The organization started
with a staff of four Vista Volunteers and in its
first year, matched 40 Bigs & Littles. Since that
time, we have brought magic into the lives of
over 6,000 children.
Today, Yavapai Big Brothers Big Sisters serves
all of Yavapai County and Sedona with offices in
Prescott, Cottonwood and Sedona. Last year alone, Yavapai Big Brothers Big Sisters served over
900 children, ranking our agency in the top
1% nationally for the number of children
matched per capita.
Many of the children we work with are often
more likely to experience trouble in school,
develop drug abuse problems, and/or become delinquent. Many have been abused and more
than 70% live at or below the poverty level.
Big Brothers and Big Sisters bring magic to these children's lives and change their lives forever.
Little Brothers and Sisters are:
- 46% less likely to initiate drug use
- 27% less likely to start drinking
- 53% less likely to skip school
- 33% less likely to have violent confrontations
Nobody else is doing the work that
Big Brothers Big Sisters does in exactly the
way we do it. It's amazing what a little
magic can do!
