Big Brothers Big Sisters of Manatee County Partners with The Center of Anna Maria Island

The Giving Coast

Beginning in May 2021, Big Brothers Big Sisters will be providing one-to-one mentoring to the students enrolled in The Center of Anna Maria Island’s after-school program. They will meet on site, at The Center for one hour a week. The mentors will develop a friendship with the child, work on academics, offer guidance, and have fun. We are in need of volunteers, 18 and over, in the local community to support these children. No experience is necessary, just a desire to make a difference in a child’s life and in the community.
