30 mentors..30 days

30 mentors….30 days

Wouldn’t that be something?

Help us reach 30 mentors by January 30th and help 30 Burlington Youth reach their full potential.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Hamilton and Burlington has recently launched a Burlington specific volunteer recruitment campaign to help address the immediate needs of 30 boys currently waiting for a Big Brother. The hope is not only to recruit male volunteers, but also to start a conversation in Burlington about the difference a mentor can make in the life of a child.

Here is how you can help:

1) If you are a mentor, share your story with your colleagues, friends and family. Encourage them to give back to the children and youth in Burlington by mentoring.

2) If you are not a mentor, take some time and look over our website. In addition to one-to-one mentoring, Big Brothers Big Sisters offers various opportunities for mentoring in group settings. The agency works with each individual volunteer to help find the most suitable program.

If you require more information, please contact Big Brothers Big Sisters at info@callbigbrothers.com or 905-525-3860.

Congratulations

Congratulations to Big Sister Karrie Capp and her little sister, Irene, for their winning submission to the National Big Brother Big Sister logo contest. Apparently the creativity of this Big and Little sister match extends well beyond the wonderful cakes that they decorate together. The pair won $100 in gas gift certificates – something they will be sure to use over the upcoming holidays.
