APPLY TO BE A BIG
ENROLL YOUR CHILD

From April 24 to August 2, we're looking for 500 potential mentors to be matched with over 500+ young people in our community looking for a Big

2 HOURS

Bigs (volunteer adult mentors) and Littles (youth mentees) get together 2-3 times for a few hours each month doing everyday activities that create a friendship bond.

Each match is supported by a dedicated Match Support Specialist who is always there to provide resources and support specific to the match's needs.

SCHOOL BUDDIES

Bigs meet at the Littles' school and hang out during the child's lunch time, whether it's in the classroom or on the playground.

You're making a positive impact by being there for them and teachers, school councilors, and parents can see the impact.

COMMUNITY-BASED

Community-based mentoring relationships involve one-on-one outings and activities, doing things the Bigs & Littles enjoy together out in the community.

Some meet on the weekends, others get together on weekday evenings. Each match is unique and develops a schedule that works with them.
