A Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Great Lakes Bay Region mentor’s role is simple: to be a friend to a child, on a one to one basis. Men are matched with boys in all circumstances, and women are matched with girls in most circumstances. A Big and a Little participate in everyday activities together on average of two to three times per month for a minimum of one year. The schedule can be flexible to meet the needs of volunteers and Littles. Throughout the friendship, Bigs assist Littles to build confidence and promote positive decision-making skills, and independence. Enhancing the self-esteem of a child can be a key building block in the development of their personality and overall approach to life. Mentoring opportunities are also available to couples and families. All volunteers undergo a comprehensive background screening before being matched with a child. If you can commit 2-3 times a month, you can change the life of a child through mentoring! Learn more at bbbsgreatlakesbay.org, or call 989.391.5103

Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Great Lakes Bay Region seeks volunteers for their Lunchbox Learners program! Lunchbox Learners starts the last week in October and ends the first week in May each year. A commitment of one school year is required. Volunteers are carefully matched with a preferred child based on volunteer preference and student needs. Each volunteer meets with the same child each week to assist the child with early reading. The Lunchbox Learners program serves children in K-3rd grades. Matches meet one day a week during the child’s lunch hour, which is about 50 minutes. Big Brothers Big Sisters offers Lunchbox Learners program at Kolb Elementary School in Bay City on Tuesdays. *All volunteers undergo a background screening which includes a criminal background check and an interview with a Big Brothers Big Sisters Site Supervisor.* Please feel free to visit http://bbbsgreatlakesbay.org/lunchbox-learners for more information on this volunteer opportunity. *NOTE: While we are currently unsure of the impact of COVID-19 for the 2021 school year, we are hopeful this program can return in a face-to-face setting. At this time, we are accepting interested candidates for the 2021 school year, unsure of what the future of the pandemic holds.
