Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Gulf Coast is the leading one-to-one mentoring organization in south Alabama and Mississippi. Each year, we serve more than 600 children and positively impact over 1,800 individuals across seven counties.
Our mission is simple but powerful: to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. We match caring adult volunteers—our “Bigs”—with children ages 6 to 15—our “Littles”—who can benefit most from a consistent, positive role model. Every Big is carefully screened and trained to provide the guidance, encouragement, and accountability their Little needs to grow in confidence, make healthy choices, and reach their full potential.

The 2026 BIG Event Celebrates the Year of the Youth
What an unforgettable evening! Our 14th annual BIG Event brought the community together to celebrate mentorship, recognize outstanding Bigs and Littles, and highlight the incredible potential of young people. Through art, poetry, and powerful stories, guests helped us envision the next chapter of something BIG.


Our community-based matches recently gathered at Starbucks in Fairhope for a fun match activity! These outings give Bigs and Littles opportunities to strengthen their relationships, enjoy new experiences, and connect with other matches in their community.
