A Message From our CEO
Greetings!
At Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Mass & MetroWest, we believe,
“You don’t have to be perfect; you just have to be present.”
When you look at our participants, they come from all walks of life; our volunteer community welcomes and includes everyone. And they all believe in the power of showing up, a principle that holds true for both Littles and Bigs. Most of the time, the sharing of life lessons, support, care, and mentorship goes both ways. Here are a few incredible stories of Bigs and Littles whose lives have been transformed by our one-to-one mentorship model to help you get a sense of how and why giving a little time can have a BIG impact.
Meet Sophia and Erika:
Sofia and Erika are one of our newest dynamic pairs! These two wonderful individuals were brought together through our Corporate-Site mentoring program with TJX Companies last December and have been enjoying their journey of getting to know each other. Each week brings a new adventure for them. Erika recalls a favorite being the question jar activity where they took turns pulling out a question that they each answered. She said it sparked conversation and helped them get to know each other. Sofia especially enjoyed playing a round of Family Feud and the Simon Says memory game. We look forward to watching this new match become great friends and continue to build their relationship.
