Match Events
| BIG fun with other matches!
While our mentorship program centers on fostering meaningful one-to-one relationships between Bigs and Littles, we also host match events to bring together program participants, creating a sense of belonging and shared experiences. We prioritize accessibility, offering free events to ensure all matches can enjoy quality experiences without economic stress. For Littles, these events provide opportunities to meet peers and gain access to first-time experiences. Activities like rock climbing, martial arts demonstrations, and pottery classes introduce new skills and passions. For Bigs, the connections made during these events allow them to receive peer support, expand their networks, and enhance their mentoring skills. |
