Hello and thank you for your interest in becoming a Big in the Big Brothers Big Sisters High School Bigs program. We are so excited to have you join our program! The next step in your process is to complete this application. Please note that on the “Thank you page”, once you submit your application, you will see two links: One is for your parents to complete a reference and the other for your teacher/counselor to complete a reference. Please know that both documents are required. Once your application has been received, you will be invited to attend an interview so we can get to know you a little bit better. If you have any questions, please contact Sarah Miller at sarah.miller@bbbscentralcarolinas.org or by calling 980-289-4203. Volunteer Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Board Members, and Agency Staff as Volunteer Bigs are not excluded on the basis of race, religion, national origin, color, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran status, or disability.
