Research is still ongoing, but we're pretty sure donuts taste better when you're volunteering. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿฉ

Meet the trio behind some of the organized chaos at Companions for Children ๐Ÿ’›

Kat. Delaney. Heather.
Different personalities. Same mission. Slightly concerning group chat energy. ๐Ÿ˜‚

But the fun part? Our team is growing.

We have TWO new staff members joining us really soon, and we canโ€™t wait to introduce you to them. ๐Ÿ˜Š

A little look back at our Mentor Mingle a few weeks ago ๐Ÿ’›

A room full of people from around Minot who all decided local kids are worth showing up for.

Now while most people are kicking off summer modeโ€ฆ weโ€™re already preparing for September behind the scenes. ๐Ÿ˜‚

They say summer bodies are made in the winter.
Around here, Lunch Pals matches are made in the summer. โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ“š

Right now, weโ€™re looking for Lunch Pals mentors for the upcoming school year.

๐ŸŽ Meet twice per month during lunch at a local school
๐Ÿ’› Spend one-on-one time with a student
๐Ÿ“ Make a real impact right here in Minot

And honestly? Youโ€™d be joining a pretty incredible group of humans.

If mentoring has been sitting in the back of your mind for a while, this is your sign. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Twice a month during the school year, Jalisa takes a few minutes to write a letter to a local elementary student through our Pen Pals program. ๐Ÿ’™

It might seem simple, but those letters help build literacy skills, confidence, connection, and consistency for kids who benefit from knowing someone is thinking about them.

Sometimes the smallest things end up making the biggest difference.

๐Ÿ“ฌ Weโ€™re already enrolling Pen Pals volunteers for NEXT school year NOW. Sign up to be a Pen Pal here ๐Ÿ‘‰https://www.companionsforchildren.org/pen-pals
