'Any hesitation about being able to help a child grow into adulthood, I think people ought to say let me give it a shot,' said Big Brother Howard Beeson.
INDIANAPOLIS — Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Indiana is looking for more mentors. More than 1,400 kids are on a waiting list right now.
Just a few hours a month to help impact a child's life is all BBBSCI is asking for. The number of kids in need of a mentor is at an all-time high, but there are not a lot of mentors to go around, specifically male mentors. They need more adults to step up and offer their time and support. "We were able to recruit 17 new applicants to become mentors. While that still leaves a lot of kids waiting for mentors, that number is definitely something to celebrate," said Stringer.
"We ask for between 4-6 hours every month, and I always share a stat that the average adult spends 4-6 hours a day on their phone. So, it's about as much per month as we all spend on our phones every day," said Stringer.
