Big Brothers Big Sisters Southeast Indiana is a chapter of the national organization Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. There are over 483 chapters across the United States, serving their local communities. We bring together children (Littles) who need a positive adult influence in their lives with vetted Big Brother/Big Sister volunteer who has agreed to spend time with the Little. These partnerships have resulted in improving the lives of thousands of children, many right here in our own communities. This is a result of our leadership and the selfless dedication of our volunteer "Bigs." Our vision is that all youth achieve their full potential, and you can be a part of it.

We were founded over 100 years ago, by Earnest Kent Coulter, a War Veteran, journalist, lawyer, public administrator, and developer of civil society and human welfare programs most notably through his work in child advocacy. Today Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America (BB/BSA) is comprised of 483 independent agencies with over 2,500 professionals and 15,000 community leaders together serving over 110,000 youth and their families. It is based on the unique concept of a one-to-one relationship between an adult volunteer and child who can benefit from the friendship and guidance provided by the volunteer.
