Here in East Tennessee, we know what it means to t Here in East Tennessee, we know what it means to take care of one another. It’s part of our culture, woven into the mountains, small towns, and tight‑knit communities we call home. 💚

It shows up in mentors who give their time.
In families who trust us with their children’s growth.

From Knoxville to the Tri-Cities, from rural backroads to busy neighborhoods, we see the same truth: when our community stands together, kids grow stronger, braver, and more confident in who they are becoming.
This is the heart of Big Brothers Big Sisters of East Tennessee.
This is the heart of our village.

  It Takes A Village

At Big Brothers Big Sisters, we’re reminded ever At Big Brothers Big Sisters, we’re reminded every day that no one grows up alone. It takes encouragement, patience, guidance, and community. It takes people who believe in showing up — not just once, but consistently.

It takes a village.
A village of mentors who listen.
A village of volunteers who give their time.
A village of supporters who believe every child deserves opportunity.
A village that says, “You matter, and we’re here for you.”

When we come together, we help young people build confidence, resilience, and hope for the future. That’s the power of mentorship. That’s the power of a village.
 
💚Join the movement. Be part of the village.
This is what mentorship looks like ... celebrating This is what mentorship looks like ... celebrating every wobble, every try, and every tiny moment of courage. 

You can see what happens when a child has someone in their corner: a steady hand on the seat, a voice cheering them on, and the reassurance that even if they fall, someone will help them get back up. These are the moments that build confidence. These are the moments that shape futures.

At Big Brothers Big Sisters, we know it takes a village to help young people thrive. Sometimes that village shows up as a Big teaching their Little to ride a bike. Other times, it’s sharing laughs, building life skills, or simply showing up week after week. Every moment matters, because every child deserves support, encouragement, and opportunity.

Become a Defender of Potential. one that empowers kids to believe in themselves, dream bigger, and keep pedaling forward.
