BBBSIA Impact Report FY2024 : simplebooklet.com

I am beyond elated to share this year's impactreport with all of you - Our Village. Ourprogram year, which runs July 1, 2023 throughJune 30, 2024, has been nothing short of high-energy. We've experienced a lot of change thispast year. We elevated our brand in CentralIowa communities. We improved efficienciesoperationally. We strengthened ourengagement with our Littles, Bigs, families,partners, sponsors, donors, board, and staff.We expanded our footprint by adding newprograms to our successful portfolio,increasing the number of youth served, andpurchasing and renovating a 50+ year-oldMessage from Our CEOI would be remis if I did not share a message about the importance of mentoring young people. Thechallenges facing today's youth have been exacerbated by so many external factors that are outside oftheir control. Mental health continues to be at the forefront of the triggers for these challenges. Society'swoes continue to perpetuate these challenges and interfere with overcoming them. The lack of hope forpositive change continues to dampen the desire of youth to trust resources put in place to improve theircircumstances. Mentoring, done the right way, can definitely have a positive impact. This is the reasonBig Brothers Big Sisters exists. It is why we work diligently to put so much effort into matching youthwith positive, caring adults. It is why we value every dollar we receive from you. It is why we appreciateevery second spent by our volunteers nurturing our Littles.Please take time to review the impact Our Village has made in the lives of our Central Iowa youth.Thank you for helping us Build A Big Future one young person at a time.In Much Gratitude,Bridget D. Cravens-NeelyChief Executive OfficerI building that has become our new Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Iowa Youth Mentoring Center.There is just so much to celebrate about this past program year - all in the spirit of helping our youthreach their full potential.2

1:1 Mentoring ProgramsSite-BasedCommunity-BasedBig Brothers Big Sisters of Central Iowa matches youth ages 5-16 years old and who live in Polk, Dallas, orWarren counties. The program requires that the Little and Big stay matched together a minimum of oneyear. The match can continue until the child turns 18 and graduates high school. There are also options formultiple individuals to mentor a child together by being a Big Duo or Family Match.In this program, the mentor (Big) and child (Little) get together at least two times a month for a couplehours each visit (at least 4 hours). Some Bigs meet their Littles on the weekends. Others get together inthe evenings. Each match is unique and develops a schedule that works for them.Littles spend time with their Bigs participating in activities out in the community, like visiting the ScienceCenter or zoo, playing catch at the park, taking a walk… whatever the match chooses to do together.Partnerships with local elementary schoolsallow BBBSIA to reach more youth in theSchool-Based program. A mentor (Big) ismatched with the child (Little) and visits thechild at school for 30-60 minutes each weekto offer one-to-one attention and extra helpwith school assignments. A literacyinitiative has been developed to help youthwith reading comprehension.This year, our School-Based programengaged students at Des Moines University,Drake University, and Dowling CatholicHigh School to volunteer as Bigs.WorkplaceTwice a month, middle school students visit theirmentors at their workplace. Each Workplacepartners with a local middle school.This program encourages youth to beginenvisioning the possibilities for their future whileproviding friendship and support through the oftendifficult years of middle school.In Workplace Mentoring, students:Gain exposure to a professional workenvironmentExplore college and career opportunitiesWork on skill developmentSchool-BasedFUTURE PATHWAYSFuture Pathways is designed to guide PathwaysFellows (mentees) on a journey of self-discovery, skilldevelopment, and goal setting with the support oftheir Pathway Coaches (mentors).

Future Pathways Match: FellowBrooklyn & Coach Corey Dion LewisAhmed Musa first told me about Future Pathways when I came to him with the dream of becoming an entrepreneur oneday, and with the hopes of building more connections within my current field of interest. He believed Future Pathwayswould be a great starting point for me when it came to gaining a professional mentorship, and boy, was he right!I chose the entrepreneurship pathway, specifically because this was geared most towards the professional experiences Iwas interested in gaining. My coach, Corey, and Future Pathways has helped me tremendously. From the invaluableexperiences I gained, to an internship working directly with health professionals in the Iowa area, I can confidently saythat I would have never had these experiences if it wasn’t for Future Pathways. I have been taught how to build andmaintain professional connections that will benefit me in the future.When people think of BBBSIA, they often think that this program is strictly for younger children needing positiveinfluential relationships. In fact, I thought the same thing, but that was not the case at all! I joined BBBSIA when I was 20years old and the entire team of BBBSIA was able to perfectly cater the program to fit my needs as a young adult. Theyunderstood that I needed a more professional-like program that would help me gain internship experience, and mypersonalized pathway did just that!The impact that Big Brother Frederick has had on his Little Brother Jahveir in the 3+ years thatthey’ve been matched is beyond measure. Jahveir’s mom, Nicholle, considers Frederick family.Frederick says of Jahveir proudly, “That’s my guy!” and “We’re locked in for life!” Thecommitment and dedication that Frederick has shown in building a strong and lastingrelationship with Jahveir is inspiring.Frederick had a traumatic childhood, growing up homeless, being passed around fromhousehold to household in neighborhoods filled with crime and poverty. The only family heknew growing up were his brothers. But Frederick turned hardships into motivation and beat Match StoriesLittle Jahveir & Big Frederick EptingJahveir and Frederick atthe Skate Park!Brooklyn Corey Dion LewisAs told by Future Pathways Fellow- Brooklyn. She is pursuing a Bachelor of Sciencein Healthcare Administration with additional focus on business studies and globaland comparative public health at Drake University.the odds and ended up getting the opportunity to play D1 football at Drake. He learned the power of mentorship whenhis Defensive Coordinator took him under his wing and helped mentor and guide him. He said he wouldn’t be where heis today if it weren’t for that relationship. His every motivation in life stems from this and mentoring today’s youth issomething he is very passionate about. It is Frederick’s belief that young black males need more positive black male rolemodels, and his goal is to impact every life that he touches.Jahveir sometimes struggles with anxiety in social situations. Frederick and Jahveir have come up with a balanceddecision-making process when it comes to outings that takes into consideration Jahveir’s feelings and comfort levelsfirst and foremost. Frederick has viewed this experience as a learning opportunity and says that he and Jahveir are on a“constant path of growth.” With his Big Brother Frederick by his side, Jahveir is confident and can conquer any fear! Frederick recognizes and values the power of just showing up and building authentic connections. This is somethingthat both Jahveir and his mom appreciate the most about him. 17
