In Honor of V alen tin e's Day
New Years resolutions They are
hard to make and even more diffi
cult to keep
The North Portland
Youth Service Center's Big Bro
ther Big Sister program offers an
excellent opportunity for a vital
actualization of resolutions for the
new year
Men and women are
being sought out to volunteer as big
brothers or big sisters for children
who are in need of positive role
models and adult friendship
According to Beth Kallmyer, co
ordinator of the North Portland
Youth Service Center’s Big Bro
ther/Big Sister program, becoming
a big brother or big sister is full
of rewards for both the volunteer
and the child
"Many people come
into the program thinking they will
do all the giving,” said Kallmyer
"Only to discover they end up gain
mg as much as they give,"
The time commitment is 2 to 5
hours a week for a minimum period
of 9 months Volunteers are match
ed with a mutually agreed upon
youth between the ages of 7 and 14
The volunteers take part in choosing
the child, explained Kallmyer, which
helps to make a more compatible
match.
"It is important that the
volunteer and the youth share com
mon interests and hobbies so that
both are able to enjoy the time spent
together "
If anyone has an interest in be
coming a big brother or big sister,
contact the North Portland Youth
Service Center at 286 0627
