Consider being a BIG in 1 of 2 ways:
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.
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/
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.
This is a terrific way to have fun while making a HUGE difference in a child’s life!
We’d LOVE TO HAVE YOU as a BIG!
