Protecting and providing a better future for America's children remains the public's top priority. Big Brothers Big Sisters is experiencing tremendous growth. At a time when public perception, media coverage and even recognition from the White House around mentoring is at an all-time high, Big Brothers Big Sisters is at the forefront of a significant national movement to provide a caring adult friend and role model who will make a difference.

To commemorate its 100th anniversary, Big Brother Big Sisters has launched an initiative in partnership with Yahoo! to champion its vision of servicing one million “at risk” children by 2010 and reunite former Big and Little Sisters and Brothers online. Steve Harris, beloved for his role as attorney Eugene Young in “The Practice,” is encouraging Bigs and Littles to submit their personal stories about past “matches” and to request help in locating their former Big or Little by registering as an alumni. NBC Today Show Host Matt Lauer, who recently reunited with his Little Todd Kaluga, will also lend his support to the Centennial Celebration.
