We’re teaming up with Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) to offer The BIG Experience volunteer opportunity at local elementary schools. You’ll be matched with a student for lunch and recess—play a game, read a book, or just talk. It’s a fun, low-pressure way to connect with a kid and experience the power of mentoring firsthand.
The BIG Experience is intentionally crafted for individuals who feel drawn to making a steady, ongoing impact in a child’s life—and are interested in exploring a meaningful, long-term mentoring role.
