Every day mentorship transforms lives by opening doors for young people to reach their full
potential. Yet, many overlook the profound impact that just one positive adult connection can
have in empowering youth and strengthening communities. This is where Big Brothers Big
Sisters (BBBS) steps in—bringing mentorship to the forefront of social change.
BBBS connects youth nationwide with caring adult mentors who guide and inspire them.
Through intentional matching and strong partnerships, BBBS supports mentorship programs in
over 5,000 communities across the U.S., creating real opportunities for youth to thrive.
We invited Artis Stevens, President and CEO of BBBS, to share his journey, from leading the

collaborations with organizations like Macy's and the NFL, Artis is bringing national attention to
BBBS’s mission and creating new avenues for people to get involved in mentorship.
