About this Opportunity
Be that person in a kid’s corner. In Metro Vancouver, 1 in 3 children have no trusted adult to turn to. That's where you come in. As a Big Sister mentor, you'll be matched one-on-one with a girl or gender-diverse youth (ages 7-17), showing up weekly and building the kind of relationship that shapes a life in your area. "You go in thinking you'll be the guide, but you end up learning just as much about yourself. Patience, growth, becoming the best version of you." — Big Sister Lauren We’re accepting applications across the Lower Mainland, but right now we especially need volunteers in: - Burnaby (Brentwood, Metrotown) - New Westminster - North Vancouver (Pemberton Heights, Deep Cove) - Richmond (Brighouse, Broadmoor) - Surrey (Newton, Saint Helen’s Park, Bridgeview, Fleetwood Park, Clayton) - Tri-Cities (Austin Heights, River Springs, Mary Hill) - Vancouver (Downtown, Strathcona, Mt.
