Big Brothers Big Sisters

Big Brothers Big Sisters sound gong

Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBSAm) exists in Amsterdam for five years. To celebrate this festive moment, one of the “Littles” from BBBSAm sounds the gong.

Big Brothers Big Sisters Amsterdam is a mentor organization that works for children and youth between the ages of 5 and 18 who live in poverty. They make meaningful matches between these children and mentors/volunteers, who bond with them, give them plenty of attention and undertake fun and educational activities with them on a weekly basis. They help these children on their way to a better life: they broaden their horizons, stimulate their talents, increase their self-confidence and their social skills. They ensure that the children will fully develop and that they have a happy, successful future. Big Brothers Big Sisters Amsterdam is supported by the Janivo Foundation, a fund that works for children and young people who can use a helping hand.
