Big Buddy Links UNC Students with Local Youth

Big Buddy Links UNC Students with Local Youth

An affiliate of Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, Big Buddy pairs UNC students with "at risk" children ages 6-14 in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro community to form one-on-one mentor relationships.  Each mentor acts as a friend and role model to a child in need of one, with the hope that the experience has positive and lasting impact on the lives of both the "big" and "little" alike.
