Creating art projects
-
Sharing general life experiences
-
Getting involved in team-building activities

Field trips with other mentor/mentee pairs.
Matches
receive the support of both the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program
Coordinator, who facilitates each mentoring session, and the Boys
& Girls Clubs staff, who interact with the children and their
families on a regular basis.
