There are more than 4000 foster children in the Bay Area with the need of multi layer support. Your involvement by volunteering makes the greatest difference in the life of a youth who needs your support to believe in themselves.
How can you help?
Become the consistent, attentive, caring adult in a child's life. Youth need someone to listen, support them, challenge them to do more and think bigger.

The Be A Mentor Program pairs caring adult volunteers from the community with youth in one-to-one relationships. Mentors give of their time to be a friend, answering questions, and providing guidance. Mentors come from a variety of backgrounds and occupations and volunteer their personal time to be a caring friend to a youth. They serve as a role model, advocate, and resource. The purpose of the mentoring relationship is to help youth develop their full potential, both in and outside of the classroom.
