MEET OUR 2025 MATCHES OF THE YEAR
Big Brother Dor & Little Brother Josh
Matched since 2023
Dor shows up week after week, offering consistency, encouragement, and a listening ear. For mentee, Josh, that presence has made all the difference: “It is nice knowing I’ll see Dor on a regular basis. It means everything knowing that he brings positivity in my life even if I’m feeling negative.”
Their match is proof that one caring adult can transform the life of a young person, bringing stability, confidence, and hope for the future.
Big Sister Lauren & Little Sister Perseis
Matched since 2021
This match is part of our Big Futures Program, which supports youth as they navigate young adulthood. For mentee Perseis, having a mentor means finally having someone she can trust and lean on during the ups and downs of young adulthood. She says the friendship with Lauren has given her safety, support, and someone who listens without judgment.
For Lauren, being a Big is about showing up, listening, and providing encouragement as Perseis navigates her path forward. She reflects, “I am a sounding board and sometimes guidance, but a lot of times just able to listen to what’s going on, listen to understand how she is feeling.
Perseis’s future is limitless.”
