BIG

Dear Supporter,

We have to start out by saying thank you. Big Brothers Big

Sisters of Tampa Bay receives incredible support from the

community in the form of partners who help us reach families in

need, advocates who increase awareness, volunteers who give

their valuable time and donors who give much-needed funds.

And after all of that, we’re going to ask you to do more.

There are so many kids who desperately need someone to set

them on the right path. Someone to make them understand that

going to school and doing their best is important. So many kids

in our community just need someone to be there for them when

they’re tempted to do something they know they shouldn’t do; a

choice that would make life even harder for them.

In 2011, we made sure that 1,900 children got the Big Sister or

Big Brother that they needed. We’re proud of that, but we want

to do better. It’s our goal to serve at least 2,000 children in

2012. Volunteers and donations are equally important in

reaching that goal.

Support Big Brothers Big Sisters and you’re helping kids who are

living in tough circumstances, through no fault of their own, find

their way to a positive future. And their brighter outlook for the

future will ultimately benefit our own community. We hope you

enjoy this report.

Very truly yours,

Lynn Woods

Our Vision and Our Mission

Our vision is that all children achieve success in life.

Our mission is to provide children facing adversity

with strong and enduring, professionally supported

one-to-one relationships that change their lives for

the better, forever.

We partner with parents/guardians, volunteers, and

others in the community and hold ourselves

accountable for each child in our program

achieving:

Higher aspirations, greater confidence, and

better relationships

Avoidance of risky behaviors

Educational success

Big Brother Maneesh and his Little Brother Gianni love cheering on The Tampa Bay Rays!

As always, we hold ourselves accountable for achieving

measurable, positive outcomes for our Littles. This year’s

achievements include:

97% or our community-based Littles and 94% of our school-based

Littles were promoted to the next grade level

95% of our community-based Littles and 90% of our school-based

Littles showed an increase in self-confidence

99% of our Littles had no involvement in the juvenile justice

system

Measurable Outcomes

Little Brother Christian was one of Pasco County’s Turnaround Students of 2011.

In 2011,

96% of our Littles

graduated to the next grade level.

Partnering for Success

It is with the support, collaboration and cooperation of many

organizations that we are able to best serve Tampa Bay’s youth.

Together, we provide them with the tools necessary to lead

productive, fulfilling lives—enabling them to one day give back to

the very community that is coming together to help them today.

We apologize if we have inadvertently failed to mention any of

our wonderful community partners.

Even as they said their goodbyes and Alexis

headed off to Howard University, Sheryl could

still see her Little Sister Alexis at age six, a shy

little girl sitting outside her house waiting to

meet her Big Sister for the first time.

Sometimes a girl just needs someone to listen,

and for 12 years Sheryl has been there for

Alexis.

“Whenever I needed anything, Sheryl was never

more than seven digits away,” says Alexis. “She

taught me how to be a young lady and how to

carry myself, and how to be respectful and kind

to people.”

“Alexis and I will be friends for life and she can

always call me. It doesn’t end with the end of the

program. It stays with us forever,” says Sheryl.

Sheryl’s reaction to the honor of being chosen

Big Sister of the Year says it all: “I was shocked.

I was proud and I was very thankful. It just goes

to show that one person can make a difference!”

Joe has been moved from one caregiver to

another…over and over again. But he’s had the

same Big Brother, ET, for 11 years. They met

when Joe was in first grade.

“I just want to see Joe fulfill what he’s able to

achieve. He hasn’t had the greatest

opportunities in life, but he has such great

ability and I think that’s going to really carry

him far in life,” says ET. “It’s been a great

relationship that I expect to continue.”

That strong relationship has been crucial to Joe,

as he’s had to face unexpected hardships in his

life—particularly the loss of his grandmother,

who was raising Joe at the time of her death.

Despite the challenges, Joe and ET talk mostly

about all the fun they’ve had together over the

years. And Joe has learned some critical life

lessons from ET.

“One thing I learned from my Big Brother is that

you can get yourself out of a situation. You’d

rather be by yourself than with someone who’s

going to bring you down,” says Joe.

Match Activities

Sporting events...college visits...girls empowerment

groups...picnics...holiday parties. We work hard to ensure

that Bigs are able to share new experiences and

memorable opportunities with their Littles throughout the

year. We appreciate the support and participation of our

many partners who help make this possible.

10

As we work to provide mentors to as many kids as

possible, we always have children waiting to be matched

with mentors. With the help of some wonderful

partners, we plan activities for these kids to enjoy

during the year.

At Big Brothers Big Sisters, we serve wonderful kids

facing difficult circumstances. In 2011, we provided a

mentor to 1,900 children:

1,337 in Hillsborough County

326 in Polk County

237 in Pasco County

We served 1,085 (57%) in our community-based

program and 813 (43%) in our school-based program.

In accordance with our effort to be more intentional

about who we serve:

33% of our Littles were children with incarcerated parents

94% of our Littles were living below the poverty level

16% of our Littles and 13% of our Bigs were Hispanic

(both up from 2010)

52% of our Littles and 23% of our Bigs were African-

American (both up from 2010)

Our 12-month volunteer retention rate increased for all

matches, which means that we are doing even better at

providing at-risk youth with much-needed consistency

and stability in their lives.

We appreciate the support we’ve received from both new

and established donors, as well as the many organizations

and individuals who have held

third-party fundraisers on our behalf. Here are some of our

fundraising highlights from 2011:

We added 1,743 new donors in 2011. We also had 719

donors from 2010 who gave again in 2011, and 281 of

our previous donors increased their donations.

We hosted fundraising luncheons in East Pasco, West

Pasco, Tampa, Lakeland and Winter Haven.

We increased our revenue at our Art of Helping

Children Gala by 17.5%, to $241,131.

2011 marked our 30th Bowl For Kids’ Sake Campaign.

We applied for 70 different grants in 2011.

Fundraising Highlights

Little Brother Jonathan was

honored at our Tampa luncheon

for perfect attendance throughout

all of elementary school.

Our Art of Helping Children Gala is getting bigger and better every year, thanks to the ongoing commitment of our title sponsors, Earth Tech and The Broadrick Family Foundation. They have been with us since the first gala 12 years ago!

15

Media Highlights

We had consistent, positive media coverage

throughout the year, with media hits that

included at least 35 print and online articles

and 14 broadcast (TV and radio) segments.

Reporters were interested in all facets of what

we do, including Bigs and Littles, at-risk

outreach efforts, Hispanic outreach efforts,

fundraisers and events.

Additionally, we continued our own promotion

through our monthly e-newsletter, increased

our activity on Facebook and launched a twitter

account (@BBBS_TampaBay).

16

Budget Highlights

As an agency that relies on donations and grant funding

to provide our services, we take particular pride in being

careful stewards of the money we receive. In 2011, both

total revenue and total expenses dropped 2% and we

ended the year with a surplus of over $20,000. We also

take care to ensure that we are not reliant on any one

funding source, as our 2011 funding allocation

demonstrates.

The financial position of Big Brothers Big Sisters of

Tampa Bay was audited by CliftonLarsonAllen LLP in

April 2012.

We have provided some of the statements compiled for that audit on the following pages. The full auditor’s

report is available in the “About Us” section of our website, www.bbbsfl.org.

The real bottom line, of course, is our ability to help as many kids in the Tampa Bay area as possible reach

their full potential...so that their futures are as bright as their smiles.
