WE BELIEVE IN THE VALUE OF MENTORING.

Studies show that mentoring helps kids stay in school, avoid risky behavior such as bullying, and grow up having respect for family, peers, and community.

WE KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE.

Serving as role models Big Brothers Big Sisters and ISM mentors teach by example the importance of giving back, staying in school and having respect for family, peers, and community.

Witnessing the transformation of a child into a confident, concerned and motive young person is a remarkable thing. Ushering them into adulthood, seeing them grow into a successful, responsible member of their community can be even more satisfying.

For both Big and Little, the mentoring experience becomes a life-changing relationship built on friendship, trust, and empowerment.

WHO CAN BE A BIG BROTHER BIG SISTER?

You can! Being a Mentor is about being a friend and someone to look up to. It’s about hanging out, talking and sharing, with many smiles along the way. It’s about making one child feel very special. And you’ll feel pretty great too. After the enrollment process, we’ll provide training and match you with a Little, who shares your interests. As a Big Brother Big Sister, you get to build model airplanes or do crafts, paint or draw, kick around the soccer ball or play football, play on the computer, hang out and much more… whatever! It’s about sharing a little time together – a few hours a week or every couple of weeks will make a big difference.
