DONATE TO BBBST

Dear Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Triangle Community,

Thank you for the warm welcome you have extended to me as I begin this new journey with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Triangle. I am grateful for the chance to serve with you in this community of dedicated volunteers, donors, partners, families, and friends who believe deeply in the power of mentorship.

As we prepare for the new school year, we are strengthening our staff, expanding our outreach, and thoughtfully creating new matches between Bigs and Littles. Every new match represents the beginning of a meaningful relationship and the possibility of a brighter future for a young person in our community.

This season, we are focusing on “A New Journey with Big Dreams and Bigger Possibilities!”

And we need you.

We invite you to join us as we realize those bigger possibilities and look toward the future with renewed energy, bold vision, and an unwavering commitment to helping young people realize their full potential.

Over the next 30 days, our goal is to welcome 30 new monthly donors. Your recurring gift—at any level—provides dependable support that helps us recruit and train mentors, support our matches, and serve more children throughout the Triangle.

Together we can do BIG and AUDACIOUS things. Donate, volunteer, or share our mission with someone who believes in the potential of young people and attend or sponsor our Big Night Ball (more information about that annual event is below).

With your help, we can turn big dreams into even bigger possibilities.

Thank you for your support. I look forward to meeting this wonderful community in person to hear about your connection to Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Triangle and explore how we can build bigger possibilities together.

With gratitude,

Sheldon Mitchell
Chief Executive Officer

A Message From Our Interim CEO

By |January 23rd, 2026|

Happy New Year and the kickoff to National Mentoring Month!

Having started just two short months ago, I am simply amazed at the passion and dedication of our staff and volunteer board of directors. Thank you all for your wonderful support. During the leadership transition here at Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Triangle my purpose is simple – to continue to support our mission to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. I am excited about the new year and our efforts to continue to expand our reach across the Triangle!

To our donors – THANK YOU! Truly…with your support we are improving the power and promise of our youth.

As we move into National Mentoring Month, igniting our youth starts with little moments that lead to big change. A BIG thank you to all our volunteer mentors, past and present, who have dedicated their time to walk alongside young people and empower them to achieve their full potential. Be a force multiplier by challenging others to support the next generation and find out how to be a big at https://bigstri.org/. Share your mentoring story using #BeBig and inspire others to get involved.

Triangle Men – we especially need you. Journalist Katie Couric spoke with Scott Galloway about his new book, Notes on Being A Man. Although not unique to North Carolina, or here in the Triangle – we DO have a need for more male mentors. Reach out to us if you or someone you know is interested in giving a Little of their time to be Big.

Here’s to a 2026 where we continue to help the youth of our community. Happy New Year.

Jeff Dooley

Interim CEO – Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Triangle
