Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Desert is a youth mentoring program for boys and girls. The organization focuses on children in the Coachella Valley from the ages of 6 - 18, both in the community and on-site. Big brothers and sisters are able to take their little brothers and sisters on excursions, from playing basketball to grabbing a pizza. Each year the program expands, and over the past two years it has grown by 153 percent. Donations are always welcomed. Those interested in volunteering can find more information at its website.
