Having a positive role model can make all the difference in a child's development.

Become a Big Sibling

Mentoring is the cornerstone of our organization. These volunteers, or Big Siblings, develop a one–on–one relationship with a child in our program. They attend the monthly Child Enrichment Outings and have at least one other contact with the child individually each month. As a Big Sibling, you are a primary source of emotional support for a student in our program and have the opportunity to develop a lasting relationship with the child and the entire family. There is no financial obligation.

We've found some characteristics that make an ideal Big Sibling include:

• patience and understanding
• high energy, fun and active
• consistency and commitment to the Big Sibling program
• willingness and desire to get to know Little Sib’s family

Other Ways To Volunteer

Become a Surrogate Big Sibling

As a Surrogate Big Sibling, you would be paired with one of our children for (second Saturday) monthly Child Enrichment Outings as you are available. It's a great way to get involved with the students if you are unable to commit to being a full–time Big Sibling.

Join the Young Professionals Board

The Young Professionals Board supports our mission through social events, volunteer recruitment, fundraisers and service projects. This group of volunteers meets monthly, planning regular social events for current and prospective volunteers, supporting the organization's fundraising efforts, and managing drives and initiatives to benefit our students and families.
