I am a "big brother" mentor to a young man in East Palo Alto named Kevin. When I was his age, I was, myself, a "little brother". Having a mentor was one of the most positive experiences of my childhood. It helped show me that there was a world larger than the one I lived in.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bay Area (and related and similar agencies) pair adult "bigs" with young "littles" in mentoring relationships. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit http://www.bbbsba.org/ (SF Bay Area), http://www.bbbs.org (US), or http://www.bbbsi.org/ (International).
Like most any nonprofit, BBBSBA is accepting much needed donations. If you feel so compelled, please consider visiting my Donation Link.
Thanks for reading.
