Make a Difference: Be a part of the collaboration between
Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metropolitan Chicago!

The BGCC/BBBS Mentoring Program involves eleven Club sites and more than 200 mentors and youth. Mentor matches meet once a week at a Club engaged in a variety of activities:

  • Talking
  • Playing games and sports
  • Doing homework
  • Creating art projects
  • Sharing general life experiences
  • Getting involved in team-building activities
  • Field trips with other mentor/mentee pairs.

Matches receive the support of both the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program Coordinator, who facilitates each mentoring session, and the Boys & Girls Clubs staff, who interact with the children and their families on a regular basis.

BGCC Mentoring is funded through the generous contributions of the Regenstein Foundation and Kraft Foods, Inc.
