Opportunity Details
Become a Big
Our volunteers provide a child with individualized time and attention on a regular basis; typically 2-4 times a month for 2-3 hours (depending on the activity). During their time spent with their "Bigs," children gain new skills, explore new interests, and test behaviors that expand their experiences beyond the scope of their family or neighborhood. Matches participate in low to no-cost shared activities at a mutually convenient time (i.e. hiking, biking, learning to bake/cook, playing board games, arts/crafts, sports, etc.).
When children and teens have the influence of a caring adult,they are more likely to avoid risky behaviors and to focus on academics. Today's youth face a variety of challenges and being matched with a Big Brother or Big Sister can help them navigate these challenges and reach their potential.
Responsibilities and Duties:
- Be a positive influence
- Defend potential of youth
- Invest in a child’s future
- Create a meaningful relationship
