Join us in turning Ventura County green to shine a light on youth mentoring! We previously encouraged multiple businesses to support our mission to Paint the Town Green and share the impact we make.
We keep moving forward with creating new matches and encouraging new volunteers for further involvement. Paint the Town Green helped the community recognize the Big Impact our Volunteers and Supporters make.

Mentoring Matters: Meet A Match
Meet Bruce & Bobby
Little Brother Bruce and Big Brother Bobby have been matched since 2022. They have been named 2025 Big & Little of the Year for Ventura County!
In the time they have been matched, Bruce has experienced many firsts. From frisbee golf to shore fishing. They obtained a library card for Bruce and have sparked his interest in reading. Bruce needed positive male guidance like Bobby, to support positive choices and self-esteem.
Bruce’s mom has expressed seeing a change in Bruce’s overall attitude at home and his efforts in school since matched.
Thank You to Our Participating Businesses
