COVID-19 stressed everyone in some capacity, and children are no exception. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Door County says that is expected to drive up the need for new mentors. If you are interested in volunteering with the group, enrollment can be completed online. Director Patty O’Rourke says the organization is doing video conferencing to create matches, but true chemistry can’t be known until two people physically meet.
Big Brothers Big Sisters also does site-based matching through various school districts. O’Rourke hopes that can return in the fall.
