New Match Highlight: Welcoming Heather and Suzanna

We're thrilled to share exciting news from the Blue Ridge Bigs community! Yesterday, we welcomed a fantastic new match to our family, Big Sister Heather and Little Sister Suzanna. The introduction meeting, filled with smiles and laughter, took place at our local BBBS office, signifying the beginning of what promises to be a rewarding journey for both mentor and mentee.

A Heartwarming Introduction

Accompanied by Suzanna’s proud parents, Heather and Suzanna quickly discovered a shared enthusiasm for a host of activities. The pair outlined an inspiring plan under our Youth Outcomes Development Program (YODP), discussing a variety of interests that will guide their time together. They're excited to explore a number of activities including visits to the SPCA, swimming, biking, watching movies, baking cakes, enjoying pizza, and painting.

Shared Passions and Goals

Suzanna, who has a profound love for animals, was especially eager about the upcoming visit to the SPCA. This aligns perfectly with our program's goals, which aim to nurture life skills and personal growth through practical experiences and emotional support. Heather's commitment to helping Suzanna in these areas was evident in her enthusiasm and supportive attitude during the meeting.

The Joy of Matching

The connection made during their initial meeting was palpable, and it's clear that Heather and Suzanna are on their way to forming a deep and impactful relationship. The joy of this new beginning was shared among all who attended, demonstrating the profound impact of mentorship and the strong community ties within our organization.
