If you want to make a difference in the life of a child this program is for you. You are given all of the training and guidance that you need to be an advocate for the child. My children are adults and this has been a wonderful opportunity for me to interact with children, meet new friends, and feel like I am truly making a difference in my community.

This is an amazing opportunity to make a real difference in the life of a child. Training and background check are easy and included, everyone involved is kind and truly passionate about the mission of being "for the child". There is a truly great need for more volunteers!

It is a life changing experience. You give a child hope for their future. The impact made on a child who feels they have no one that cares about what happens to them is powerful.
