MENTORING
Community-based mentoring helps young people to increase their confidence, develop a greater sense of belonging, and aspire to greatness. The majority of the young people who come through the Big Brothers Big Sisters programme are looking for positive adult role models outside of their existing support structures.
A young person aged 6-12 is matched with an adult volunteer based on personality, shared interests, and geographic location. Once a week, for a minimum of a year, the mentor meets with the young person to spend time together – cooking, going to the beach, playing sport – the possibilities are endless.
Community-based mentoring through the Big Brothers Big Sisters model is proven to make a lasting, positive impact in the life of a young person.
We endeavor to provide the framework for positive, enduring friendships that change the lives of the people involved.

These two had a blast at The Lion King last week! Thanks, Spark Arena for gifting an experience like no other. These two will be forever grateful.
When your mentor takes you to RotoVegas, and you go on a 400-metre zipline through the forest!! Her face says it all.
Our BBBS matches hang out and do some unique activities 😃
Look at these two chilling in a bath surrounded by ducks.
What a laugh!!
Look how cute these two look! The bond they have created is immmeasurable. We are so proud of all our matches.
Keep up the excellent work, BBBS volunteers!
