Volunteer tutors come from all walks of life—married, single,with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers.They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.
A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four times each month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park,cooking,playing sport or going to a football match.These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop positive selfrespect,confidence and life direction.
Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations exist throughout the world. It is the largest and most wellknown provider of tutor services internationally and has been operating for 25 years.
Emily and Sarah have been matched since March 2008. Emily is a 10yearold girl who has experienced some difficulties being accepted by her schoolmates at school. ‘I was pretty sure there
was something wrong with me.’
Emily's mum came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be of benefit to Emily
by ‘providing different feedback (反馈) about herself other than just relying on schoolmates to measure her selfworth.’
Sarah wanted to get involved in a volunteer program. ‘I googled it and found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes it's all work and no play.’
