Empower Resilience (SAM)
A group fundraising campaign for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Cincinnati.

About This Campaign
We are a team of Big Brothers and Big Sisters throughout Greater Cincinnati who want to celebrate the success of our own matches by raising funds to MAKE NEW MATCHES!
None of us are fundraising pros so we’re grateful for any donations. Every $1,200 raised covers the cost of BBBSGC making one new match and sustaining it for a year. It would be amazing if every Big Brother or Big Sister in this campaign could raise enough money to make at least one new match!
EMPOWER RESILIENCE
We’ve all had to adjust to a world no one could have predicted: a pandemic, social unrest and economic uncertainty. It has been a challenge for the strongest of us. Despite the obstacles our Little Brothers and Little Sisters were facing long before the pandemic, there’s one thing they’ve shown us. THEY ARE RESILIENT!
While some people say 2020 changed everything, the vital role Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Cincinnati plays in providing support to at-risk children and their families has not changed a bit. Bigs continue to find innovative ways to stay connected to their Littles. The staff members are not only supporting Bigs and Littles but also helping families connect with the resources they need to survive – and thrive. BBBSGC's ability to provide supportive services and community connections, while inspiring hope, has become more critical than ever.
We hope you will consider making an investment to continue to EMPOWER RESILIENCE IN OUR LITTLES.

Campaign to Support Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Cincinnati
We create life-changing friendships by matching adult mentors with at-risk Tri-State children in need of positive role models. We partner with parents and guardians, volunteers and others in the community, and hold ourselves accountable for each child in our program. Statistics show these Little Brothers and Sisters have higher aspirations, greater confidence, do better in school and avoid risky behaviors.
