Friends and Mentors

Our youth have many people trying to keep them on the straight and narrow. Although the kids need authority figures, sometimes they just need a friend who is a positive influence, someone to talk to, laugh and hang out with.

There are ample opportunities to interact with our young people on special days as well, such as, birthdays, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. You may "adopt" a Building Bridges participant to interact with and provide gifts for on special occasions.

Volunteering as a friend or mentor at Building Bridges allows you to dtermine how much time you're comfortable committing, the possibilities are endless. Friends & Mentors have been known to go out to eat, see movies, roller blade, or just talk.
