Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Permian Basin

Mission: To create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.

Big Brothers Big Sisters is the oldest, largest and most effective youth mentoring organization in the United States.

We have been the leader in one-to-one youth service for more than a century, developing positive relationships that have a direct and lasting impact on the lives of young people. Big Brothers Big Sisters serves children, ages 6 through 18, in communities across the country – including the Permian Basin. The Big Brothers Big Sisters Mission is to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally-supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.

We match mentors (Bigs) with children (Littles) on a one-to-one basis. These matches maintain regular contact either in our traditional Community-Based Mentoring Program or in our School-Based Mentoring Program. Our Littles, aged 6 to 18, are all voluntary participants and come from diverse ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds.

As a mentor you can make a difference in a child’s life and help them know that their future is bright! You will not only be helping a child but you will be helping build a better future for Midland by helping our children grow up to be better neighbors and co-workers. PLEASE NOTE: The Big Brothers Big Sisters program requires a commitment of 1 year, meeting with a specific child for a few hours per month. Our program is not well suited for those needing community service hours in a short period of time. Must be 18 years old and up with a valid driver’s license and proof of auto insurance.
