GREETINGS!!! As we all know, children are the future, and many of them are challenged through lack of leadership and inspiration in their lives. There are some very goal-oriented, influential brothers in the group whose time and effort will mean the world to a young person who lacks it in his/her life. EVERYTHING you do as a leader impacts our youth, both positively and negatively. If you’re looking to volunteer by providing some mentorship, this might be a program for you. By volunteering to be a Big Brother, here is the measurable impact it has on the children in the program:
· more confident in their schoolwork performance
· able to get along better with their families
· 46% less likely to begin using illegal drugs
· 27% less likely to begin using alcohol
· 52% less likely to skip school.
