The After School Buddies program prepares young girls (Little Buddies) for the difficult social and academic challenges of middle school by pairing them with teen coaches (Big Buddies) in weekly after school sessions.
What Do Big Buddies Do?
· Aspire to improve Little Buddies’ study skills · Share with others with community projects · Build relationships with confidence and trust · Develop healthy minds and bodies · Have fun with arts, crafts, music & more!
After School Buddies is uniquely successful due to its focus on tri-generational mentoring and leadership development. Relationship building, homework sessions, exercise and nutrition discussions and activities, arts and crafts, along with community service projects are all foundations of this faith-based organization.
Our Mission: To empower and encourage teens to discover their potential and to positively influence younger students in thought, word, and action.
Our Purpose: After School Buddies exists to: 1. Provide opportunities for teens, young adults and adults to positively impact the world; 2. Serve as a catalyst to challenge teens to discover personal gifts, talents, and purpose; 3. Influence the lives of elementary and middle school girls by holding after school and summer camp programs led by teenagers under adult supervision; 4. Develop local and foreign service opportunities to inspire increased compassion, education, and awareness of worldwide needs; 5. Encourage all involved to be like Jesus Christ – in thought, word and action. |
