Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta helps children reach their full potential by matching them up with caring volunteers.
•
According to bbbsatl, nearly 500,000 kids in Metro Atlanta live in communities with low child well-being. Many of them rarely leave their neighborhoods. So when Big Brothers Big Sisters sent a group of "bigs" and "littles" to a basketball game at State Farm Arena, the kids got an entirely different view of their city.

“An event like this exposes our littles to things they might not normally be exposed to,” says Kelci Sleeper of bbbsatl. “Many professional basketball players come from similar backgrounds as some of the children we serve. It can be inspirational to see those players up close.”
