It takes money to carefully screen, interview and support the volunteers and families in our program. Our professional Match Support Specialists actively oversee each Big/Little “match” to help them develop the strong, continuing relationships that provide the greatest benefit to the kids in our program. And there are always more children who can benefit from a relationship with a mentor. We’d like to provide a mentor to every single child who wants and needs one, but we can’t–without your help. Consider making a one-time gift or a multi-year pledge. You can also give easy monthly payments. Your donation is more important than ever.
