COMMUNITY-BASED MENTORING
SPACING
Community-based matches participate in one-to-one outings and activities in the community with a Big Sister, Big Brother or Big Couple. Matches plan time together doing things that they both enjoy, like taking a walk in the park, going to a museum, eating a meal in your home, or just hanging out and talking. Life-changing friendships are built through the simplest of moments spent together.
Meeting with your youth doesn't require a special occasion or expensive experiences. In fact, we encourage our matches to plan outings that take advantage of our match discounts.
Each match is unique and develops a schedule that works for them. While the schedule is flexible, we ask each match to meet 2-3 times a month for a 1-year commitment.

THE BIG SOCIAL
Free quarterly events to help you learn more about our organizations and to thank our current Bigs and stakeholders for everything they do. Big Socials are a great way to hear from current staff and Bigs in a fun, laidback environment about what being a Big Brother, Sister, or Couple is really about.
We've hosted Game Nights 1 & 2 at Spielbound Cafe, The Pursuit of Hoppyness at Kros Strain Brewing, ¡Big Fiesta! at Guaca Maya and Big Watch Party at DJ's Dugout (Bellevue). As more people get vaccinated and restrictions are lifted, we will look to have our first Big Social of the year.
