About this Opportunity

With boys referred to our program at a rate 4 times greater than girls, the need for male mentors (Big Brothers) is ever present.

Being a Big is simple, a few hours, twice a month is all takes to help defend and ignite potential for Southcoast youth. No one is too young (18) or too old (our oldest Big is in his 80's) to make a lasting impact on the life of a child, and your own. From hiking, biking, trips to the beach, mini-golf, ice cream or simply hanging out, the time that you spend helps to guide and shape a future generation of youth. In our program, you're never alone to figure it out, each volunteer has a professional trained support person to guide them through the life of their mentoring friendship.

With COVID-19, we have programs for all comfort levels. From virtual mentoring to socially distanced in person outings, we ensure the safety of our Bigs, Littles and their families.

You can start the process immediately by visiting ourwebsite and scheduling your own volunteer interview, or respond to this opportunity and a member of our team will reach out to you!

Not a guy, but know someone who would make a great Big Brother? Forward them this opportunity today!
