We are a non-profit, community-based organization that has served the Greater Vancouver area since 1957. Traditionally, we have matched boys from male-absent homes to carefully screened and trained adult male volunteers, who provided guidance, support, and friendship.

Times have changed. Our volunteers and the needs of our communities have changed. In response, we have developed a menu of programs to suit the diversity of our communities and the busy schedules of our volunteers.

Whether you are male or female, 19 or 99; if you have at least one hour a week to spend with a child, we have a volunteer opportunity for you.

Get involved - it’s fun, it’s easy and it’s meaningful:

Big Brothers Program: A friendship-based program that matches men with boys (aged seven to twelve) from father-absent homes.

In-School Mentoring Program, Elementary: A friendship-based, non-academic program that matches men and women with boys and girls (grades 1-6) for one hour a week.

Teen Mentoring Program: A friendship-based, non-academic program that matches high school students with boys and girls (grades 1-7), for one hour a week, at the child’s school.
