Youth led? It is important that we offer a true peer to peer experience. We have evidence that shows our members excel through our program from the representation provided, ongoing encouragement and mentor involvement.

Why just boys? We have researched and found that boys, specifically between the ages of 8-12 stop reading. We are doing everything possible to combat against that.

I don’t live in St. Louis, how can I benefit from the meetups?

We understand! Because we’ve had local members even have transportation issues, we virtually stream as well. Every first Sunday, at 4pm CST you can stream in to read and discuss the book with other members!

 

Did you change the age range?

Yes we did! While Books N Bros was started when Sidney was 10 years old, we have learned over the years that we can’t keep it at a certain age. We have to open the doors when boys need us even more; entering high school. This older age range is new but we are excited to expand!

Big Bros are male mentors who volunteer their time to read with our local members. Big Bros are also available for those who need a positive influence. All big bros go through a background check before volunteering at our meetups.
