Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta (BBBSMA) works with corporate companies, communities, and schools to find both children and volunteers for our program. These children and families are then interviewed to make sure they are a great fit for BBBSMA.

Our team then hand-selects each Big and Little match, based on factors like similar interests and geographical location.
