Big Futures Mentor

Help empower the future success of Butler County's youth by becoming a mentor in our Big Futures Program!

Big Futures is a career-focused mentoring program that matches adult mentors in the community with high school freshmen and sophomores from throughout Butler County. The purpose of the program is to help youth prepare for their future success by sharing your experiences and perspectives in the workforce, and what it takes to achieve success and fulfillment. You will meet twice per month with your mentee. One of these meetings is one-on-one at your workplace or public location, where you'll share lessons you've learned and help your mentee plan for and realize their goals. The other meeting is a "field trip" to a local business, where you and your mentee will join others in the Big Futures program to tour the business and learn about what it's like to work there. Please note: during the COVID-19 pandemic, meetings with your mentee may be virtual, and field trips to local businesses may or may not be possible.

This volunteer opportunity is ideal for adults who love their job or are retired, and they want to share what they've learned with the next generation. All professions, including the trades, are welcomed!
