Big Brothers Big Sisters of Nevada County (BBBSNC) was founded in 1981 to provide successful mentoring relationships for local children who want and need them, contributing to better schools, brighter futures, and a stronger community for all. Volunteer mentors ("Bigs") offer guidance and support to children ("Littles") ages 6-18 primarily from low-income, single-parent families. In January 2008, we expanded our mentoring programs to the Truckee-North Tahoe region and opened an office in Truckee. We serve over 200 children and youth annually throughout our service area.
