Local Boys
Are Waiting for
a Mentor.
Can You Be One?
Many young boys in our community are seeking a positive male role model. Just showing up and being kind, honest, and reliable can make a huge difference
By mentoring, you make a real difference in the lives of young people across the Roaring Fork Valley.
Mentoring opportunities available from Aspen to Glenwood Springs.
Why is having a mentor important for boys growing up today?
Connection
Some boys may not have a male role model in their lives or might be looking for a positive influence outside their family.
Presence
Mentoring doesn’t have to be serious all the time. Playing soccer, going for a walk, or grabbing a snack can build a real connection.
Guidance
Mentors teach by example, like how to handle challenges, and make good choices. It’s the little things that matter most.

I’d like to be paired with a Big Buddy I can ski with, and who loves the outdoors, someone who can keep up with me and is like a Big brother!
