Tour de Gap
Tour de Gap is celebrating 40 years in Buffalo Gap, TX on July 22-23, 2022. Big Brothers Big Sisters Abilene is the charity partner benefiting from this event. Please consider a donation in support of their cause!
The core work of Big Brothers and Big Sisters is the daily connection between our Bigs and Littles. Your support enables every minute a Big and a Little spend together — whether it’s a simple moment of joy or a deep instance of mentoring — and each lifelong relationship so many of our matches build. That’s happening right now, as you read this, because you make it happen.
Your support extends so much farther and deeper than you know. When children in the Abilene community experience mentorship from a Big, they often feel seen in ways that builds self-empowerment and a sense of belonging.
The result, as our kids progress along the path you help clear for them, is not only their biggest future. It’s also a future with a clearer path toward opportunity. Your support helps enable that future, along with every moment between a Big and a Little that leads there.
We invite you to join the village now and support both the essential work of today, and the future we all envision.
Big Brothers Big Sisters Abilene
The mission of Big Brothers Big Sisters is to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. Our mentoring model inspires youth equity and empowerment and engages intentionally with mentors, mentees and their families to help break the cycle of poverty, contribute to a healthier society and help shape the leaders of tomorrow. For many of the youth in our program, the one constant they can rely on is their connection with their Big. Matched children receive mentorship, compassion, stability and, just as importantly, time for fun. Whether it’s a trip out for ice cream, a shoulder to cry on or an empowering influence in an uncertain time, for more than 40 years Big Brothers Big Sisters Abilene has helped our Littles grow toward their fullest lives and reach their biggest futures!
