My Sister’s Keeper Mentoring Program

Through a two-year engagement funded by Community Foundation of Greater Flint’s Women and Girls Funds, Big Brothers Big Sisters hopes to address the gender achievement gap our young girls face by exposing them to STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) activities and career pathways in our My Sister’s Keeper Mentoring program. We recognize how important it is to teach our young girls to advocate for themselves. Mentoring is a proven strategy that builds self-confidence through the support of a caring adult. The agency will continue to provide STEM-focused events and support the matches to explore non-traditional college and career options. If you know someone who would like to mentor a young girl and help her become one of our future doctors, engineers or astronauts, please contact Lisa Humphrey, Vice President of Programs, at 810-235-7271.
