Mentors for Little Brothers and Little Sisters – Make A Difference in a Kid’s Life

Apr 11, 2011 | 10:11 AM

LITTLE BROTHERS are great kids anxiously waiting to have fun with someone like you. Their ages usually range from 6 to 16, and all are excited to be a part of this program. If you’ve ever wanted to be a kid again, your Little Brother will be happy to help you out. That’s the magic of the program – you learn from each other.

WHAT SHARING A LITTLE MAGIC CAN DO

Children who spend time with a mentor gain confidence, acquire new skills and competencies, and develop an enhanced capacity to care for others. Mentors experience a sense of discovery and enjoyment as they see the world of possibility open up through a child’s eye.
