​​Your money is hard-earned and there are countless ways to spend it. With $5, you can buy a coffee, watch several weeks of Netflix, and you can change a child’s life – right here in the Treasure Valley. For a recurring payment of $5 a month, you can provide a stable, caring force in a child’s life. If 100 people take the pledge, together we can give the gift of a mentor to 6 additional children this year!

DirecTV Backpack Event and Ice Cream Social

8/17/2015

We had such a great time at this year's Ice Cream Social and Backpack Event sponsored by DirecTV. We were able to outfit 30 children with backpacks full of school supplies for the upcoming year. Our Bigs, Littles, staff and volunteers had fun in the sun playing volleyball, kickball, extreme Frisbee and making crazy hats. The ice cream truck in the park made for the perfect way to celebrate the Backpack Event. Thank you to DirecTV, all of their volunteers and their efforts!

Meet Laura!

Laura graduated from Cedarville University in Ohio with a BA in Public Administration and has been back in Idaho for a year.  Laura enjoys reading, hiking and sarcasm. She loves discussing public policy, feminism, and Keeping Up With the Kardashians. She is known among her coworkers for being a detail-driven numbers junkie who finds a meme for every occasion.


Laura is an AmeriCorps VISTA and the Communications Specialist at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwest Idaho. Laura first became interested in Big Brothers Big Sisters because her father was a Big when she was a child and she still remembers being a part of that experience. She is excited to continue her involvement in Big Brothers Big Sisters as a staff member and loves working with people who believe in supporting each other as they serve the community.
