CIVIC MINDED IN HIGH SCHOOL
We have over 15 high school children that are acting as Bigs in our school-based program. What an inspiration.
HELPING THOSE WHO REALLY NEED HELP
Recently we have admitted a child to the program whose mother had passed away recently and father was detained by ICE. Parentless she is living with aunts and uncles who are unable to help the child develop their potential.
THE LOVE AND CARING OF A MENTOR
Matched for six years, the Little calls her Big her grandma, because she’s the closest thing she has to one – being an immigrant, most of her family is not in the country and those who are are, aren’t fluent in English. When the little girls aunt passed away earlier this year her Big Sis was the first person she wanted to talk to.
