Each year Sharing Connections provides furniture and household items to over 7,000 individuals in transition - but we don’t do it alone. Join our efforts by starting your own group or business Dresser Building Challenge and help us provide over 600 dressers this year to families in transition.

In our Community-Based program, volunteers are matched one-to-one with a child between the ages of 7-14. The volunteer will pick up the little from their home, and take them out into the community to do fun activities that will help the child to improve in three outcome areas: Educational Achievement, Social-Emotional Competency and the Avoidance of Risky Behavior. You can decide on your outings together based on your interests and personalities. Each match is professionally supported by a Big Brothers Big Sisters staff person.

Here a couple of the requirements to be a Community Based Mentor:

- Be at least 21 years old

- Commit to a minimum of a 1 year relationship

- Meet at least twice a month with your Little

- Be willing to be matched with a Little in DuPage County who lives within 20-30 minutes of your home.

Become a Big and change TWO lives!

If you know how to knit, crochet, sew, or just use scissors - why not start on a critter blanket today? They're fast to make, and lots of fun! Once you have a few done, you can send them to a participating shelter in your state, or to CFC headquarters in Glen Ellyn, IL for distribution to a shelter.

* Knit or Crochet a Blanket - Knit or crochet a blanket using any pattern and any color of washable yarn. Feel free to mix and match colors, and even make up your own pattern! The finished blanket should be approximately 20 inches square. If it's not perfect (who is?) that's fine with us, and the critters!  If you'd like some ideal patterns for blankets, just check out our "Volunteer Resources" page of our website.

While most of the blankets we make and send are this size, we do love and support larger dogs and other "critters". So do feel free to make them doggie-sized if you like, or larger to accommodate larger pets. We gladly take ANY size blanket and will find the perfect animal to cuddle it!

* Make a Fleece Blanket - Use two pieces of fleece (so that it's nice and thick) - at least one piece should have a pattern, if possible. You can sew them together or cut and tie them. If they do have ties, please try to make the center (untied) portion of the blanket about 20-inches square.

If you don't have the time or expertise to make blankets for homeless pets, but you do have some extra yarn (leftover from a project) or a full skein you've never gotten around to using, we can put it to good use!  Any amount, any color 4-ply yarn will be gratefully accepted.

We also gladly accept any leftover fleece material. We use larger pieces of fleece to make blankets, and smaller strips to make pull-toys for shelter dogs. We have a 24/7 drop-off bin in Glen Ellyn, IL to receive donations.
