   50. Promoting Mentorship at Carroll University, with Ellie, Paige, Gabby & Cearstin

   Mentoring is more than just an opportunity to volunteer and give back to the community. Students in the Big Brothers Big Sisters club at Carroll University in Waukesha have leveraged their shared experience as mentors to create a campus organization. Together, they make meaningful connections, support one another on their mentorship journeys, and recruit new volunteers for the organization. And in this episode, we chat with four Big Sisters from Carroll University—Ellie, Paige, Gabby, and Cearstin—to discuss what inspired them to join the organization, how they navigate their matches alongside busy academic schedules, and the common myths about volunteering that stop some people from getting involved.
