BarrieToday is stepping up to support Big Brothers Big Sisters with our online fundraiser. But we need your help!
For every donation made from our online pop-up store, local businesses have offered to match the donation. That means your donation will be matched three times! Donate Below!
All donations will go directly to Big Brothers Big Sisters to support youth programs in our community. You can make a donation until May 19 at 12 p.m.
Please READ THE RULES. Your credit card will be charged at the time of purchase. We recommend you use a credit card, not a debit card.
This wouldn’t be possible without the generous local businesses and organizations that work hard to make Barrie a better place.
Thanks to Mak Mechanical and Molly Maid who have joined us in matching each donation.

BBBS creates individual and group mentoring relationships amongst adults and youth.
Mentorship is two-way, learning and development partnership where the young person needs are placed at the centre.
Because young people’s brains are still developing, mentoring can support that process through back-and-forth interaction like the volley in a good game of ping-pong.
Mentoring is an important way to give youth experience with these essential back-and-forth relationships, developing them into healthy young people better able to deal with and overcome life’s adversities.
