Volunteer Information

Categorical listing: Children

Mission: We strive to help develop mentors committed to helping boys and girls grow into the next generation of caring, confident, and competent adults.

Volunteer Opportunities: Volunteers are needed to mentors children in the community. Opportunities exist at three different levels: 1) community-based mentors, 2) site-based mentors, and 3) Amachi mentors. In community-based volunteering, volunteers are paired with a single child and asked to meet with them several times a month to do something within the community. In site-based volunteering, volunteers meet with children at some community site and enjoy time together. In Amachi volunteering, volunteers meet with children who are impacted by an incarcerated family member.
