You can make a difference in a child's life. One out of eight children never finish high school. Mentors serve in many ways, but they have one thing in common.
Mentors are adults who care about children.
The need for caring adults to spend time with children has never been greater. Realizing this need, the Volunteer Centers of Dallas, Tarrant and Collin Counties and the Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations of Dallas, Arlington and Tarrant County created the collaborative Greater Metroplex Mentor Center. The Greater Metroplex Mentor Center is not a physical place, but a concept. It is a coalition of agencies who have, by becoming members, agreed to meet certain standards in their mentoring programs. To date, more than 30 nonprofit agencies with mentoring programs are participating in the Mentor Center.
