The Difference You'll Make

The Big Brothers Big Sisters’ mentorship program pairs positive adult role models with young people aged 7 to 17, to broaden their horizons beyond existing support structures and enrich their perspective on life.
They take on hundreds of volunteer mentor enquiries each year. Each volunteer must undergo extensive screening and training to become qualified mentors. This high standard of mentorship comes at a large cost.
By embarking on the Larapinta Trek with Big Brothers Big Sisters, you'll help raise much needed funds to train volunteers as qualified mentors and raise awareness of the many benefits of one-on-one mentorship.
The impact of mentorship is profound for both the mentee and mentor. The long-term commitment organically creates a safe and supportive space, resulting in a sense of belonging.
"My mentor is like my best friend and they always show up for me regardless of what's happened throughout the week."
This powerful friendship enhances connectedness, well-being, resilience and self-worth in the young person. At the same time, it reduces disengagement in school, feelings of social isolation and the likelihood of engaging in harmful behaviors like drugs and alcohol.
You can play a crucial role in ensuring the longevity of Big Brothers Big Sisters mentorship programs by raising funds and awareness for the hard work they do.
