We are a non-profit, community-based organization that serves Squamish, Whistler, Pemberton and The Sunshine Coast. We began in Squamish over 20 years ago and have since expanded to serve our neighbouring communities. Traditionally, we have matched boys & girls to carefully screened and trained adult male & female volunteers, who provide 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 the community 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 male-absent homes.
  • Big Sisters Program: A friendship-based program that matches women with girls aged seven to twelve.
  • In-School Mentoring Program: A friendship-based, non-academic program that matches men and women with boys and girls (grades 1-7) 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.
