There is an opportunity to make a difference in a child’s life even with a busy schedule. For those volunteers who would like to be involved but due to personal time constraints, can only provide time on a bi-weekly basis, Flex Time is geared to the amount of time the volunteer can commit to.
This can be done through shared activities such as going for a walk, playing a sport, laughing, going on a picnic, or just plain listening and talking. There is a little or no expense involved, and some of the best-shared activities are low-cost and spontaneous. The Big Brothers/Sisters often make life long friends with their Little who can really benefit from their attention. In most cases, the volunteer gains as much from the relationship as Littles do.
