Activities include having lunch, playing board and card games, creating a craft or art project, helping with homework, reading a book together, spending time outdoors and/or having conversations. To administer these programs, in 2023 BBBS partnered with eight area schools and Bowdoin College. Programs are directly supervised by BBBS staff and facilitators at the schools. Volunteers are vetted, trained and supported on-going. Children participating in these programs achieve greater self-confidence, are better able to express feelings, have increased interests and hobbies, have improved academic performance, better classroom behavior and several other positive outcomes! Twenty-eight youth, their families, and a comparable number of volunteers were served by School/Site-Based programs in 2023. The average School-Based Big and Littles match length is 21.5 months, exceeding the national average school-based match-length by over 14%. 104099 The Community-Based Mentoring Program serves youth between ages 6-young adult that are facing adverse childhood experiences and are primarily living in single-parent low-income homes by providing one-to-one mentoring relationships with professionally supported, volunteer Big Brothers and Sisters. Volunteers are screened, trained and vetted by BBBS professional staff and carefully matched with each Little. Bigs and Littles spend time monthly engaging in a variety of healthy activities. Staff provide ongoing monthly support to every volunteer, child and child's family.These relationships help children build resiliency against adversity, grow their self-esteem and aspirations, build connections within the community, learn to better avoid risky behaviors and experience an overall improved life-trajectory for future success. On an annual basis, over 90% of Big and Little matches exceed their one-year match anniversary and many will stay connected for several years with the average match length being 43 months. BBBS/BB match relationships exceed the national average match-length by over 29%. These relationships help children build resiliency against adversity, grow their self-esteem and aspirations, build connections within the community, learn to better avoid risky behaviors and experience an overall improved life-trajectory for future success. In 2023, 110 children, their families, and an equal number of volunteers, were served by the Community-Based Mentoring Program. 225052 true true false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 3 0 false 8 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 14 14 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X X CAROL MARQUIS 2077297736 85 MAINE STREET BRUNSWICK ME 04011 X CAROL MARQUIS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 0.00 60777 0 3203 Lee Johnson BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Matthew Bachman President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Karry Kane Treasurer 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Heather Arvidson Secretary 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 John O'Neill BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Dutton BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Richard Burns BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Elwell BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Erinn Kennedy BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nicholas O'Brien BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Richard Flemming BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Amanda McGovern Vice President 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Barbara Berinato BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Penny Anderson BOARD MEMBER 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 60777 3203 0 false false false 0 2300 544984 348194 547284 0 7093 7093 0 0 0 10244 10124 120 120 120 121697 36335 85362 0 0 0 639859 7213 0 0 0 0 60777 18233 18233 24311 0 132892 111092 18289 3511 0 23639 17846 2681 3112 15889 10453 3149 2287 0 0 16694 5372 10768 554 0 0 369 369 3939 3939 8627 8469 98 60 5607 2278 798 2531 0 0 26693 17560 5290 3843 3123 2936 187 0 0 0 0 1060 697 210 153 9495 6116 3172 207 DUES & SUBSCRIPTIONS 11850 10127 585 1138 Printing and Publications 3007 878 265 1864 PROGRAM SUPPLIES 2681 2681 OTHER EXPENSES 2288 354 628 1306 6690 6021 144 525 335320 225052 64679 45589 114315 56240 70061 73168 0 12452 12345 0 0 0 0 5338 11170 338133 6162 3031 331971 0 116491 179762 0 0 191 2 321879 664658 11215 8387 11215 8387 X 305308 316305 5356 339966 310664 656271 321879 664658 304539 9410 31658 X false true X true false X 109031 196650 214890 251475 218194 990240 0 0 109031 196650 214890 251475 218194 990240 107948 882292 27 281 960 7094 8362 0 0 998602 0.88350 0.94030 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 330000 330000 8133 6162 1971 331971 179762 671396 -120 31657 31537 639859 639859 334951 334951 369 369 335320 X X X X false THE BIG SWING 69519 69519 6704 14597 BOWL FOR KIDS SAKE 30535 30535 3404 2 21643 21643 2000 9630 121697 121697 8704 27631 36335 85362 X 1 10124 FMV X 1 330000 FMV GIFT CARDS 10 2925 TICKETS 4 2668 SUPPLIES 7 2477 false false false Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The form 990 is completed following a full financial audit with an independent auditing company.
