Buddy Program

Description:

The Buddy Program empowers youth through mentoring experiences to achieve their full potential.
We envision a thriving community in which all members are supported and connected through meaningful relationships and experiences to achieve success.
We value, celebrate, and consciously cultivate diversity as we strive to achieve equity through the power of mentoring.
Our values are kindness, connection, empowerment, discovery, and inclusion.

School-based mentoring: 1:1 mentoring between an adult volunteer and a student in their local school
Peer-to-Peer mentoring: 1:1 mentoring between a high school volunteer and an elementary or middle school student within a group setting at the Little Buddy's school
