Big Brothers Big Sisters of Christchurch

Welcome to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Christchurch, a beacon of hope and support in the heart of Canterbury. Established in 2013, we've been committed to shaping a brighter future for our city's children, students, seniors, and everyone in between. Our passion lies in empowering individuals through mentoring services, fostering strong bonds that transcend age, culture, and background. Our journey began with the belief that every young mind deserves the opportunity to flourish, every student should have someone to lean on, and every senior should be able to share their wisdom. We've grown from a small group of dedicated volunteers into an organization that reaches out to various communities across Christchurch, offering Community-Based Mentoring and School-Based Mentoring programs. Our story isn't about statistics or numbers; it's about the smiles on faces illuminated by newfound confidence, the tears of joy shed over small victories, and the laughter shared during simple moments of connection. It's about creating a safe space for babies to grow, nurturing their minds with love and care, and guiding students through the complexities of youth. It's about providing seniors with a sense of purpose as they share their wealth of experience, wisdom, and compassion. We are more than just a Welfare Organisation; we're a family that stretches far beyond the walls of our offices. We're a community united by shared values and a common goal: to make a difference in the lives of those around us. So, whether you're a curious baby, a determined student, a wise senior, or simply someone who wants to contribute to the wellbeing of our city, we welcome you with open arms. Join us as we continue to redefine what it means to be a part of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Christchurch – because together, we can create a future that shines brighter than ever before.
