Program Preference
School-based matches are where Big and Little's spend time inside the child's school. This would mean you would go to the child's school sometime between the hours of 9am-3pm to complete an activity. You could have lunch with them, play a board game, do homework together or join them at recess. Community-based matches spend time outside of the school. The Bigs would pick up their Little Friend from school or from their home and do an activity out in the community. Late afternoons, early evenings or weekends are primarily the times when community-based matches spend time together. Please choose if you'd rather be considered a school-based or community-based match below.
I agree to give one hour a week to my Little Friend. I understand that I am not responsible for expenses other than for myself. I agree to keep a written report of the time spent with my Little Friend and to communicate with the Friends Director regularly, especially should any concerns arise. I agree to complete the monthly match report.
