Volunteers & Mentors

Join Us in Making a Difference
Franklin County Children Services is on a mission to unlock the potential of young people through personalized mentorship—and you can be a part of that goal. Our one-on-one mentoring programs, including Malaika, Simba , Friendship, and, College-Bound, are designed to support the unique needs and interests of both mentors and mentees.


Due to the overwhelming success of our first 60 for Six mentorship program (cohort), we’re excited to announce that our 2025 recruitment begins in January 2025! 60 for Six is a program designed to bring together 60 dedicated individuals to serve as mentors over a six-month period with young people who are involved with FCCS.


Why Volunteer with Us?
Your involvement directly meets a very important need of matching youth we serve and support. As a volunteer mentor, you’ll be provided with training, resources, incentives, and support necessary to make a lasting impact in a young person’s life. 60 for Six is a structured program filled with FREE cultural, educational, and social activities, designed to encourage growth and meaningful connections that could last a lifetime.


Ready to Become a Mentor?
Take the first step by completing the 60 for Six  interest form, and you will be contacted with more details!


Want to Help but Can’t Commit to Mentoring? If you have limited availability, your support is always welcomed and needed. Please consider volunteering at our Crisis Center, where you can still make a difference in a variety of ways. Volunteers help clean and sanitize toys, stock shelves, and provide childcare as needed. Crisis Center volunteers are not assigned to specific children; instead, they offer essential support and supervision, ensuring children experience a safe and positive environment. For more information, please call us at (614) 275-2690 or email us at Fccsvolunteers@fccs.us. 


Holiday Volunteer Opportunities Join us in our Holiday Wish Center! Volunteers assist by organizing toys, help create an engaging shopping experience for our families, wrapping gifts, while providing general support to make this holiday season special for all kids and families we serve.
