Call 672-6048 with questions about child care or for more information. The organization will hold two volunteer orientations, July 6 and 20. Volunteers are asked to make a commitment of six to eight hours a month for a minimum of one year. They must be at least 16 years old with a valid driver's license. Volunteers can be single, married, have children or not.
Married couples can volunteer to mentor the life of a child.
Once accepted, Bigs are matched with Littles age 6-15 from single parent or alternative parent homes. Professional staff provides screening, training and supervision to ensure the match is working for both parties. Remember, you don't have to be an expert on children, just a friend. Dr. Jesse Fletcher will present reflections of the past year. For more information, call 673-4587.
