Reply ToOrganization Name Volunteer to Organization*RegardingOrganization to VolunteerHello and thank you for reaching out! We appreciate that our community of mentors come to us from a wide variety of backgrounds, professions, and represent diverse interests. What our "Bigs" all have in common is a desire to be a positive role model to child, helping them make healthy and safe choices, and spend time with them one-on-one consistently. Your unusual professional life as you say would not be a disqualifier. With regards to your schedule and availability, I will share that in our community-based program volunteer Bigs meet with their Littles afterschool or on weekends, and in our school-based program our volunteers go to the child's school at lunchtime to met with them during the week. We do ask each applicant to complete a pretty comprehensive interview and background check with us - no surprise when working with children, right? :) The interview is a great time to get to know you, make sure you are a good fit for our program, and let you learn more and ask any questions about us. If you are interested in learning more or scheduling an interview you may contact me directly at ehopson@bbbsnn.org. I would be happy to discuss this further with you. Many thanks!
