Be a volunteer

WILLIMANTIC- - Nutmeg Big Brothers Big Sisters, Connecticut’s premier youth mentoring organization, has launched a early fall campaign designed to transition as many young people as possible off its area wide waiting list and into productive match relationships with caring adult mentors. To communicate its recruiting message to constituents, Nutmeg is utilizing public relations, social media and word-of-mouth messaging. They need both male and female volunteers in the Windham/Willimantic area, with the emphasis being on female volunteers. Mentoring isn’t only fun, it has the potential of being the adventure of a lifetime. It isn’t expensive to do. It only takes between 6 to 10 hours each month. And you don’t need special training or education to be one.
