About this service
A variation on the traditional one-to-one program, Big G matches an intergenerational mentor with an elementary school mentee. For one hour per week, they will meet at their school during the school day for the entire school year, where they will play games, get to know each other, and explore the mentees interests. The Big G program targets early retirees for volunteer mentorship positions and enrolls children who need the support and friendship that the Big G can provide. Big G mentors set and commit to a weekly schedule of school visits throughout the school year. As BBBST volunteers, mentors in the Big G program will be provided with specialized asset-building training that they can use within their match, their families or other community groups.
