Other Opportunities with Big Brothers Big Sisters
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.
Thanks for your interest in this volunteer position!
