Could Your Child Benefit from Mentoring?

When it comes to our children's future, we’re in this together. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Bath/Brunswick pairs screened positive mentors with youth to create a community where all children achieve success.

We offer school-based mentoring, in which your child is matched with a trained adult volunteer who meets with them weekly at their school for lunch and recess.

We also offer community-based mentoring, in which your child and their Big meet to do fun things together on a schedule that works for them.

All our programs are free!
