School-To-Work
Our newest program, School-to-Work is a three-way partnership between the local school districts, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Tampa Bay and our corporate and community partners to provide one-on-one mentoring in the workplace for high school juniors and seniors to help improve graduation rates. The students (Littles) visit the workplace of the employees (Bigs) one morning each month during the school year for about four hours. They spend the first hour learning post-graduation skills, then spend one-on-one time with their corporate Bigs through lunch before returning to school. Current partners include Nielsen Media, Valley National Bank, Moffitt Cancer Center and the St. Pete/Clearwater Airport – with more companies lined up to join the program in the fall of 2018. To learn more, contact Jennifer Libby at JenniferL@bbbstampabay.org
Bigs In Blue
Bigs in Blue is a national initiative designed to encourage youth to gain a more accurate perception of the positive work that law enforcement personnel provide on a daily basis. Police officers and civilian staff (Bigs) visit an area child (Littles) at their school one hour per week to spend one-on-one mentoring time. The program was launched locally with the Tampa Police Department, where more than 35 officers and personnel are matched with elementary school children in Hillsborough County. Law enforcement agencies also have the option to host a School-to-Work program. For more information, contact Jack Sheppard at 727-420-4338 or JackS@bbbstampabay.org
