Big Brothers Big Sisters Charity Cruise-in / Pancake Breakfast Buffet

8:30am Saturday July 28

Big Brothers Big Sisters empowers children through mentoring relationships and changes lives one at a time'!

At the present there are 211 children matched with an adult volunteer in the county and the City of Windsor areas and our numbers keep growing, with 155 waiting! Being a volunteer to a "little" involves friendship, fun and doing some of the things you likely already enjoy doing. Volunteers are good role models and commit to regularly spending a few hours with a child as a Big Brother, Big Sister, In-School Mentor or as a Group Leader.

Besides our need for volunteers, Big Brothers Big Sisters is a not for profit organization who is currently part of the financially struggling phenomenom of reduced funds being available for local charities. We are facing this challenge by working more efficiently and even harder in our efforts to raise critical dollars. The Canadian Transportation Museum has been very generous in lending us their support. 

Your donation can make a difference, and every dollar counts!

Trixie the Clown will be performing at the Big Brother and Big Sister Charity Cruise-in/Pancake Breakfast Buffet at 9:00am!
