Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Indiana

Bigs and Littles let their creativity shine at our recent match activity, Blooming Connections!🌷🎨✨

At this event, matches were able to paint a pre-planted flower pot that they were also able to bring home. Check out some of the masterpieces that they created!🖼️

A big thank you to Alicia Thomas, founder of Craft Connections, for providing the flower pots and helping to make this event special for our young people!

Recently, our team has made some pit-stops at Crew Carwash locations around Central Indiana to celebrate race season and gear up for Crew for Kids in July!🏁🫧🚗

A huge shoutout to Crew Carwash, and all of their amazing team members, for being a long standing partner of Big Brothers Big Sisters and uplifting young people in our community. 💚

Don't forget to mark your calendar to get an Ultimate Wash at this year's Crew for Kids event on Saturday, July 18 at ANY Crew Carwash location!

Happy Pride Month from BBBSCI!🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️✨

We believe every child deserves someone in their corner who sees their strength, hears their voice, and helps them grow. We stand with the LGBTQ+ community, working to expand access to mentorship for all youth.

Swipe to see how we are celebrating Pride Month throughout the community - and where you can find us to join us!➡️

Our matches had such a blast at PopCon Indy earlier this month! Alongside their Bigs, our Littles had the chance to meet some of their favorite characters, score some autographs, and even show off their own creativity and cosplays. 🌟

A huge shoutout to PopCon for donating tickets to our matches for this special event!

Meet Little Sister Ja'Nise and Big Sister Eleanor - our FIRST match made directly from the 500 Bigs by the Indy 500 Campaign!🏁🔥

Before being matched with Eleanor, Ja'Nise was also apart of our Group Mentoring program. With a Big Sister of her own, she says she's looking forward to having someone to talk to and spend time outdoors with. Ja'Nise is also excited to share her interests in crafts, skating, and riding bikes with Eleanor. 🎨🛼🚲

More race day fun! 🏎️🏆🔥

Thanks to a few generous donors, these Littles had a blast at the Indy 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday! Little Brother Zamir and Bigs Heather & Tristen had a blast watching the race. Little Brother Tre'mahine also attended and even scored some cool race day merch! 🏁

🚨 95 MORE MENTORS NEEDED! 🚨

We're counting down the days until the 110th Running of the Indy 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and our final day of the 500 Bigs by the Indy 500 campaign! The checkered flag is waving in the final stretch, and WE NEED YOU to take the first step towards creating positive change as a mentor in a kid's life.

Visit https://www.bebigforkids.org/volunteer/ to take the first step and help us reach our goal to support more kids through mentorship! 🏁

Little Brother Ethan & Big Brother Kenney have joined the race!🏁

Ethan and Kenney were matched because they share a lot of similarities - like their love for sports and strong sense of humor! For their first hangout, they're excited to grab ice cream at Culver's and play some basketball. 🍦🏀
