Sarah Dews hasn't added a story.

Six months ago, I signed up to be a Big with Big Brothers Big Sisters and was matched with my 7 year old Little Sister. Since then, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful mentorship can be—not just for my Little, but for me as well. I’m now taking on a new challenge to support BBBS—rappelling off a building! The money raised will continue to support the life-changing impact BBBS has on the kids in our community.

 

If you’re able, please consider donating to my fundraiser. Your support means more matches, more opportunities, and a stronger future for these kids! Thank you!
