Big Brothers Big Sisters Christchurch (BBBS) is a children's charity dedicated to providing life-changing one-to-one mentoring for tamariki facing barriers and experiencing adversity due to circumstances beyond their control. Through our programme taiohi-young people are able to realise their strengths and potential, and be empowered to thrive.

For over 20 years, we’ve been creating life-changing matches that help young people in Ōtautahi thrive — at home, at school, and in the community. Our mentoring programme is free for families, yet the outcomes are invaluable.
