  • 3 people are interested

Jewish Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Boston (JBBBS) is seeking a volunteer Friend (ages 21-33) for Sally (they/them)! Sally is a 22-YO adult with disabilities living in Marlborough, MA who identifies as nonbinary and bisexual. Sally is an animal lover and is especially connected to horses. They love to ride whenever there is an opportunity to do so. Sally likes to use social media and play various game apps. They also enjoy listening to and singing many types of music. Sally has ADHD, as well as anxiety, causing them to be slightly shy when first meeting others. The ideal match for Sally would be a nonbinary volunteer who is upbeat and patient. It is important to Sally that their Friend provide a defined plan for the activity so that Sally understands how the time will be structured.

Friends agree to meet one to two times per month and make at least a yearlong commitment. Match support is provided by Clinical Match Specialists. Volunteers from all religions, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds are welcome! Visit www.jbbbs.org to learn more about the Friend 2 Friend Community Program and apply. Email Tania@JBBBS.org with any questions.
