BRATTLEBORO — Mahana Magic Foundation is partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Vermont to create the Mahana Mentoring Program to support and encourage these children experiencing a loved one's cancer.
Such young people are impacted by a wide range of emotions. They experience fear, anger, anxiety, sadness, and even guilt.
BBBS of Vermont, through their one-to-one mentoring program, keep children ages 6-18 engaged, build youth resilience and help to mitigate the negative effects of trauma through mentorship.
The Mahana Magic Foundation provides support to children during and after a loved one's experience with cancer. They design opportunities for children to build their confidence and lessen their fears.
To volunteer or refer a child, contact Kimberley Diemond at [email protected] or 802-689-0092.
