“Funding is used for recruiting, careful matching, background checks, screening and maintaining on-going professional support for the volunteers, youth, and their families – the key to ensuring long-term positive outcomes that change lives and communities.” The goal is that each match will develop into a quality relationship meant to guide each child towards becoming a confident, competent, and caring individual. Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer is invited to call the office at 547-9622 or 492-7611.
“There’s a growing demand for structured successful youth mentoring, particularly in this economy when families are struggling,” Lisa Brown, Executive Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby and Darke Counties, said. “Independent research shows children matched with Big Brothers Big Sisters mentors are more confident, more likely to succeed in school, and avoid drug and alcohol abuse and other negative influences.”
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby and Darke Counties is a non-profit, United Way member service organization, providing positive adult role models to children facing adversity.
