Big Brothers Big Sisters of Saint John
Children & Youth

Searching for adult volunteers who can provide a positive in-school experience to youth enrolled in our 1:1 mentoring program. Throughout the school year, mentors are asked to meet their mentees at school for one hour each week. The relationship between you and your mentee will grow through fun activities such as board games, crafts and good conversation. Just showing up to hang out with your mentee, sharing challenging growth and providing support is often enough to change lives. Note: These meetings do not take place in the summer or days when there is no school such as holidays.
