Big Brothers Big Sisters of America’s Post

"I thought I could deeply impact the life of a young person; little did I know the huge impact this little girl would have on me! She's taught me so much and has shaped the way I speak with and interact with my own kids and young people in general. I'm so grateful for the past decade and the next few to come." - Big Brothers Big Sisters of Miami Big Sister Latha #BiggerTogether

"I just want Chris to know that I'm really thankful for the commitment he's made to me throughout the 5+ years we've been matched. I can't exactly tell you where I'd be right now or what my life would be like without him, but I can say pretty confidently that it definitely wouldn't be as good as it is right now." - Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City Little Shane, 2024 Little Brother of the Year 💚 #BiggerTogether

"Where there’s a need, you should sow a seed. It’s a real relationship, and there’s no expiration. As long as she’ll have me, I’ll be here." — BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS SERVICES, INC Big Donna, 2024 Big Sister of the Year 💚 #BiggerTogether

Congratulations to Big Donna and Little Melvina from BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS SERVICES, INC, our Big and Little of the Year! Melvina, the youngest of six siblings (each with their own Big), has found an incredible mentor and friend in Donna. Through their bond, Donna has supported Melvina's spiritual growth in a safe and loving environment while also finding joy in her own life. Their lifelong connection is a shining example of the Big Brothers Big Sisters mentorship program.
