?I deeply appreciate our Bigs for their incredible support. Their dedication to being there for the girls is truly remarkable. Whether I need to discuss challenges, celebrate successes, or seek guidance with school subjects, I know I can always reach out to them. They inspire the girls to thrive, and having mentors who genuinely care about their well-being and growth is truly special.? - Ashley, Reno County parent ??

"I have seen Shae’Lynn grow tremendously since we first met. We have spent many hours over the last six years shopping, going out to eat, talking about our pets, and bowling. We will continue to text, send memes, and I will be visiting her as often as possible when I am back in Kansas. She is truly my family now along with her mother and sister." - Page, Harvey County Alumni Big Sister ?? Volunteer: kansasbigs.org/be-a-big Donate: 4kidsake.org/gg
