Ms. Day thanked the Commissioners for this opportunity to give insight on Big Brothers Big Sisters and will be available for anyone that would like more information on becoming a mentor until 1:30 p.m.
She stated that there is a need for one on one mentoring of boys and girls, volunteers that are willing to commit at the minimum at least once a month. She stated her formal little is in her 20’s now and she is doing well.
Cheryl Hribar, Big Sister to Molly staring at age 6, she is now 12. She stated her husband Joe encouraged her to do this and Molly looks to him as a father figure she never had. She and Molly have a strong relationship but there have been ups and downs through the years but she is on track to graduate which she would be the first in her family to do. She spends about 3-4 hours biweekly with her doing everything from watching TV, reading, going to a park, eating, baking etc. They truly appreciate the relationship and listening
David Gerrone, Senior Case Manager for Big Brothers Big Sister said there are 3 programs; 1) community based and a committee of once a month; 2) school base program usually high schoolers do this to help others out with school work, etc and 3) lunch buddy program; 1 hour /week go to the school read, help with homework, listen. Lorain County Big Brothers Big Sisters has longevity in matching, best in nation. He stated that Ms. Day has been here since the conception of this organization since April 1996, so there is also longevity in the staff. There are at least 75 kids that need to be matched, they do extensive background checks with BCI, FBI, 3 referrals, sex offender search and 2 hours of mentoring; safety is key.
Commissioner Lundy said the lunch buddy program is good for professionals that could easily go. Dave said yes because we have volunteers that have jobs, family but still take the time to mentor
Commissioners thanked them for coming, what a wonderful program.
