  • Late Breaking News!

    On December 14th, we received the Agency Inclusion Award from Kesher,an organization that works to include people with disabilities in Jewish life. Our agency was recognized for "Project Gesher",which encourages the participation of children with disabilities by providing for the recruitment and training of volunteers. We are very proud of this accomplishment and thank everyone who has made this award possible.

     
     

    Big Night Out A Big Success

    When Big Brothers/Big Sisters Association of Cincinnati hosts its Big Night Out wine tasting, there is no reason to stay home.


    What A Match!

    Big Brothers and Big Sisters (a.k.a. "Bigs") share the belief that the "little" moments spent with a young person often can make a lifelong impact. Jordan (age 14) and Chase (age 29) are but one example of a match that has truly made a difference.


    Bowl For Kids' Sake

    Mark your calendar for Sunday, March 13, 2005! That's when our annual Bowl For Kids' Sake takes place at Madison Bowl.

    We'll be bowling, having fun and raising funds for our kids. Be sure to join us from Noon to 4:00 pm and bring your family, friends and co-workers. For more info and for registration, check out www.bowl4kids.com


    Donate Before It's Too Late!

    The Gift of Friendship

    Everyone needs a friend--especially the children served by the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Association. Finding caring, adult friends for our kids is what we do best.

    A lasting friendship is built on trust. You have trusted our agency for over 94 years. We have trusted you to help us. Now is the time to renew that trust by making a donation to our annual campaign. Click here to donate and many, many thanks!
