Learn more about mentoring youth at Little Bruins info session tonight
According to some polls (Department of Human Services, Oregon Health Plan, etc.), at least 25 percent of Newberg lies beneath the national poverty line. Helping those in need is a very special calling, but often goes undefined.
One way to give back to the community is by mentoring youth. Little Bruins is a youth mentoring program. Unlike in the past, George Fox is partnering with various agencies from the Newberg School District to provide multiple volunteer avenues to mentor youth, including:
- One-on-one
- Big Bruin/Little Bruin mentoring with elementary and middle schoolers
- MyZone middle school activity center, and
- AVID tutoring program for adolescents
If you are interested in giving back to the community and gaining valuable experience working with youth, come to the Little Bruins info session tonight (Wednesday) in Bauman Auditorium just after Vespers. You have the opportunity to make a real difference in these young people’s lives.
