Support Whidbey Families in Simple, Powerful Ways
Looking for a way to give back that feels joyful, easy, and truly meaningful? You’re in the right place. At Mother Mentors, we believe that when families feel supported, our whole island thrives—and you can be part of that ripple effect.
We’re a relationship-based nonprofit, powered by volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you can give a few hours this summer or are looking for a longer-term connection, your time and heart can make a real difference.Three Great Ways To Get Involved:
Work parties & shopkeeper shifts all summer long
Love organizing? Enjoy helping others feel cared for? Come lend a hand in our South Whidbey Parent Pantry! This is where families come for essentials like diapers, wipes, and baby gear—all offered with dignity and kindness.
Help us tidy, restock, and create a welcoming space—or volunteer as a Pantry Shopkeeper to greet families and offer support during open hours.
Volunteer at the Rest Nest – Whidbey Island Fair
July 24–27 • 3-hour shifts • Fair entry included
Be part of something sweet and special! The Rest Nest is our peaceful pop-up space at the Fair where families with young children (ages 0–5) can take a break—nurse a baby, calm a toddler, cool down, and catch their breath.
As a Rest Nest volunteer, you’ll help make this space feel calm, safe, and welcoming. No special skills needed—just a warm presence and 3 hours to give.
Become a Volunteer Mentor
Make a lasting difference in a family's life—just a few hours a week.
Our mentorship program connects caring volunteers with parents of young children who could use a little extra support. As a mentor, you might spend time listening, helping out with daily tasks, or simply showing up as a steady, compassionate presence.
We provide thoughtful training, match you carefully with a family, and offer ongoing support every step of the way.
