Volunteer Opportunities

  • Big Brothers Big Sisters is Looking for Mentors

    Interested in working with kids in your local community? Join Big Brothers Big Sisters for a chance to mentor a child in the Windham or Putnam school districts!

    Big Brothers Big Sisters is a one-on-one mentoring program that works with elementary and middle school children in the Windham and Putnam school districts.  Program runs once a week (see a full schedule of available times below) as an afterschool program at the child's school.  We incorporate an academic component through a tutoring session each week with your child, while still leaving plenty of time for fun!  You will work with the same child each week, allowing for a great opportunity to really get to know your Little (student) as the year progresses.
