Be a Big Brother or Sister

Our mentors commit to spending a few hours each week with a child in their community who is in need of extra support. All of our matches are based on compatibility, so “Bigs” and their “Littles” are free to do any mutually enjoyed activity.

Volunteers are provided with ongoing support from Caseworkers for the duration of their match.

Volunteers receive discounts from our community partners to do low-cost activities with their Littles.

We are always available to provide written or verbal reference letters for academic, work-related, or personal purposes.

Volunteer Duties

Cheer on the Hurricanes, go for a bike ride, fix up an old car or bake cookies–the possibilities are endless!

Calling all teens! This is a great opportunity for teens to dip their toes into the waters of volunteer work.

Teens are matched to a child from elementary school, where they meet weekly on zoom for 10-15 sessions.

All sessions are supervised and facilitated by an agency caseworker. This is a great way to gain experience, help a child, and fill up those empty white spaces on your resume!

Each high school/elementary school runs one program each school year, so fill out your application ASAP to ensure you’re not too late for your school’s program.

A great way to complete any required volunteer hours for graduation.
