Our volunteer mentors come from a wide range of ages, cultures, and backgrounds — from CEOs to students, parachutists to retirees. They foster meaningful, consistent one-on-one relationships that build confidence, resilience, and create a ripple effect throughout families, schools, and communities. Activities like muffin baking, movie watching, scrapbooking, shopping, dog walking, hanging out at home, or jamming on video games help strengthen the bond with the young person. Over time, they make a lasting impact on both the individual and their whānau.
