Being a Big is a rewarding experience for both a volunteer and a child! In fact, our volunteers tell us they get as much out of the experience as the kids.
Our community based program is where you get to share activities with a child that you both enjoy! This might include catching fireflies for the first time, flying a kite, a first trip to the ballpark, building sandcastles at the beach or just eating an ice cream sundae together. When a volunteer introduces new worlds to a child it truly does create magic in their lives.
You will get to enjoy these fun times three to four times a month with your Little Brother or Little Sister on your own schedule. Our agnecy serves littles who live in Portage or Marquette County.
