Andrew and I spent two hours every weekend playing tennis, bushwalking, playing putt putt golf, or working on school assignments.
The Big Sisters Big Brothers program helps young people who face serious adversity; those who have little opportunity to develop positive and supportive relationships with adults. Many are hungry for friendship, guidance and acceptance.
The program sets up meaningful, monitored, mentoring matches between adult volunteers and children living with disadvantage, ages 7 through 17.
By positively changing the course of a young person's life, we build resilience and a sense of self-worth that helps them to stay at school, improve their relationships with families and their community which in turn can lead to long-term community benefits like an increase in school retention; school and community safety; and greater employment opportunities.
By connecting a disadvantaged child to a positive role model we can break the cycle of disadvantage.
