Faithful Friends is a community-based mentoring program that provides children support and stability through relationships that encourage personal growth and inspire hope.
The program matches volunteer individuals, couples and families with children ages 6 through 9 for mentoring relationships. The mentor/mentee matches meet 3-4 times each month for at least one year.
