COMMITMENT TO RECONCILIATION Big Brothers Big Sisters is on an evolving journey of reconciliation within Saskatoon. From this commitment, we honor the spirit and intent of the treaties and are humbled by the opportunity to make change within the lives of the youth of Treaty 6 territory and Metis Homeland.

WE CHANGE LIVES The Cost of Doing Nothing THE COST OF DOING NOTHING Many young people find themselves in vulnerable situations and facing adversities such as mental health issues, family violence, identity issues or poor living conditions, which put these youth at risk of not reaching their full potential. PAVING THE WAY TO SUCCCESS With the guidance and support of a mentor, these risks can be avoided, and these young people can gain the confidence to achieve more higher incomes, happier lives, more contributions to their communities. THE CONFIDENCE TO ACHIEVE MORE Our mentors advise and challenge these young people, act as their champions, provide greater consistency in their lives, connect them to broader experiences, opportunities and networks, and provide safe, nonjudgmental environments in which the child or youth can confide anything.
