Canadian Western Bank Funds Big Brothers and Big Sisters Mentoring program

Big Brothers and Big Sisters would like to thank the Canadian Western Bank for their generous contribution of $7,500 in support of our mentoring program. These funds will assist with volunteer recruitment, screening, orientation and training, as well as pre-match training for mentees and ongoing match support and supervision.

Potential benefits for a mentee from having a mentoring relationship include:

• Improved attendance at school.
• Improved relationships with other children, youth and families.
• Increased positive, healthy choices and enhanced self-esteem.
• Increased civic engagement and employment.
• Improved social and cognitive skills.
• Reduction of anxiety, depression and conduct problems.

Thank You to our friends at Canadian Western Bank.  This is your place to make a difference.
