Community Based Program
Many relationships between Bigs and Littles fall under our Community-based programs. These are one-to-one outings and activities, doing things they enjoy together. Some Bigs meet their Littles on the weekends. Others get together with their Littles in the evenings. Each match is unique and develops a schedule that works for them. Community-based Bigs get newsletter updates with activity ideas and opportunities for donor-supported sporting and entertainment events.
School Based Program
It may sound obvious, but sometimes the best place to help a child realize their potential is at school. Kids enjoy having their Bigs meet with them there, whether it’s in the classroom or on the playground. And parents know what a positive impact it makes.
During the school year, School-based Bigs and Littles meet at the same time each week for 1-2 hours. In the summer, they maintain contact through phone calls, email or mail.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeastern New Mexico offers mentoring at several schools throughout our service area. Enrollment is seasonal, and space is limited. We are currently accepting new volunteers for the 2011-2012 school year. Call our office or click the Volunteer tab to get started.
