Big Brothers Big Sisters is looking for individuals age 18 and up to volunteer with students during the summer and afterschool. Mentors will be matched with at risk students on site at Kostoryz and Oak Park Elementary school. The mentors will participate in activities such as arts and crafts , team and leadership building exercises.
Mentors help to alleviate the physical, mental or emotional problems of at-risk children. The person-to-person relationship so often missing in the lives of the children is the most signifigant aspect of the program. Volunteers relate to our Littles in a supportive way, with patience and understanding. They create an atmosphere in which the child is helped to grow emotionally, socially, and physically. Please help make a difference in these children life and help them to reach their highest potential

Description
The Big Brothers Big Sisters Match
According to the study, our one-to-one matches are the driving force behind making an impact on children. A Big Brothers Big Sisters’ match is carefully administered and held to the strictest standards. Agency staff strives for matches that are not only safe and well suited to each child’s needs, but also harmonious and built to last. The entire matching process, from the initial screening to the final pairing-and beyond-is made possible by your support/
But don’t just think of us as simply matchmakers. We provide ongoing support and supervision to the Big, the Little, and the Little’s family. We offer training and advice to help ensure that the match is working for everyone involved. And our local agencies even receive their own ongoing training and consulting from the Big Brothers Big Sisters national office. It is this web of support that helps maximize the likelihood that a Big Brothers Big Sisters relationship will thrive.
