Volunteers are matched with a child between the ages of 6 and 15 to form a mentoring relationship. During outings, Bigs and Littles do every day activities that provide children with the opportunity to discover a world of possibilities for their life.

Couple's Program (Community Based)

Couples in a committed relationship often find that sharing the responsibility of a Little Brother fits well within the time constraints of a busy life. The time commitment for this program is 2-4 times per month for at least one year. Partners can spend part of this time with the child one-on-one, but at least 50% of the time spent with the child must be as a couple.  Applications of both parties need to be sent in for us to process the couple at the same time.

Getting together is a great time for both the Big and the Little. It doesn’t require a special occasion or expensive activities; just a few hours every month to share the simple things you already like to do. Things like….

• Shooting hoops
• Playing a board game
• Sharing a pizza
• Taking a walk in the park
• Or just hanging out and talking

Volunteers must meet the following criteria to be matched with a child in our community-based program

• Be at least 18 years of age
• Be open to being matched with a child in need of a positive adult friend in their life
