Our Programs:
Big Brothers Big Sisters Core Program
Our traditional “core” program is a one
on one matching program. We match adult volunteers with kids ages 4-18.
These matches are made based on compatibility between adult and child. It
only takes two to three hours a week to bring magic into the life of a
“Little”. There is flexibility to allow for different schedules and life
challenges because this is a program with the emphasis on PEOPLE.
High
School Mentoring Program
A program that matches high school mentors
one on one with elementary aged kids. These friendships are based
on-campus with a tutorial focus, but there are also times to chat, play
tetherball and create you own activity ideas. Matches are based on
personality traits and basic compatibility. Each match lasts for the
duration of the school year.
THE
MUSIC ZONE
A Fort Bragg and Ukiah program
subsidizing musical instrument rental and music lessons for kids under 18.
Donations of new or used instruments help make this program possible.
Jump!!
A site based program that puts community
volunteers in the schools, 1 hour a week to help with academic study and
other aspects of school life! All volunteers are required to be at least
18 years old. Volunteers are needed throughout the county (county
employees qualify for two hours a month off paid time to spend with a
child!)
