Community Based Mentoring

“HE REALLY IS A JOY TO VISIT AND A LOT OF FUN. HE HAS IT ALL-CHARACTER, PERSONALITY, SENSE OF HUMOR.” – BIG BROTHER RAY

The Community Based mentoring program is what most consider to be the traditional mentoring program. Bigs and Littles meet twice a month to enjoy one-to-one outings and activities like:

  • Attending a sporting event
  • Going to get ice cream
  • Going fishing or hiking in a local park
  • Working on a school project
  • Just hanging out and talking

Some matches meet on the weekend while others meet during the week.  It all depends on what works best for everyone.  Children are initially matched at ages 7-14 for at least 15 months, though we often have matches that stay together for much longer.
