WIN BIG WITH THE BIG BC LOTTO
Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations of BC enable life-changing mentoring relationships to ignite the power and potential of young people across our province. Many children and youth in Canada struggle with societal barriers and face adversities in their lives like detrimental living conditions, family violence, risk factors for mental health, school issues and identity challenges. With the guidance and support of a mentor, these risks can be reduced or even avoided, and youth are reminded they can be anything they dream of being. Lotto proceeds will directly support 11 Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations across BC and the 5000+ at-risk youth that are mentored through their programs.
