Consider being a BIG in 1 of 2 ways:

1. Community-based program

   • 12-month minimum commitment

   • One hour per week

   • The volunteer (Big) takes the mentee (Little) out to do a free/low-cost activity in the community.

   • The match is supported by professionally trained staff.

2. Site-based program

   • One school year commitment (no summers)

   • 2 hours per week

   • The volunteer (Big) meets the mentee (Little) at a local school.

   • The match is supported by professionally trained staff.

Since every potential volunteer has to start with attending a volunteer information session, please sign up to attend an information session here: https://ccysb.com/bbbs-orientation-sign-up/ or CALL US at 814-237-5731.

This is a no-pressure session to learn about the program to see if being a BIG is a good fit.

Typically, 4 info sessions are held per month (3 on Zoom and 1 at the YSB office).

We’d LOVE TO HAVE YOU as a BIG!
