TOGETHER, THE FUTURE LOOKS BIG.
Potential lives within every kid. Yet, thousands of children are still in need of someone who will stand in their corner. So, we’ve sharpened our focus. Reimagined how we do things. Modernized how we look and talk. And we are creating new and exciting ways to put our Littles first like never before.
We are Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeast Florida. We’re here to defend every kid’s potential. We’re ready to build the biggest possible future, together. And this is only just the beginning.
THIS IS THE CAPITAL
The capital is a letterform that tells our story. The story of an organization that creates connections that matter. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeast Florida
When the “B” is used alone, we call it The Capital. It is a powerful symbol of the real-life match that creates a whole greater than the sum of its parts.
LOWERCASE B
This idea represents the story of a Little and their parents or guardians aligning with our organization to build momentum toward reaching their full potential. The elements of the lowercase b stand as a powerful symbol but do not tell the complete story.
COMPLETE THE B
With the addition of Bigs, the equal parts create meaningful intersection. As the upper piece of the B is added, the relationship balances and becomes stronger and bigger.
