SITE-BASED MENTORING 
​Although our Site-Based program typically takes place at our local schools, it's not limited to the classroom. Site-based matches can meet in the lunchroom, on the playground or after school program for about 1 hour per week!  
​
COMMUNITY-BASED MENTORING 
Some matches may spend time in the park, playing games or other fun activities! Others get together in the evenings. Each match is unique and develops a schedule that works for them!
95%
​Littles improved their 
academic ​performance.
92%
Littles maintained or improved
their school attendance.

Help put "MEN" back in "mentoring!"

Picture
There is currently a greater need for male mentors. Over 25 school-aged boys are waiting to be matched with a positive "big brother" in both our Community-Based and Site-Based Programs.
​

While our policy allows us to match Big Sisters with Little Brothers in our Site-Based program, a majority of the families have requested that their child be matched only with a Big Brother as there is a lack of positive male role models in their child's life.

"Right now, we have 19 volunteers in the enrollment process and only 2 are male" says Melissa Ryan, BBBS Program Manager; "We really want to find Big Brothers for these boys who have been referred to the program". If you have ever considered being a volunteer Big Brother or Big Sister and can spare 1 hour per week, now is the perfect time to contact us to learn which program is right for you and your schedule!

If you can be consistent, a good listener, like to have fun and have even just a little time to spare, you can be a Big!
