So, every year I get older (who doesn't), and at the moment I do not have any kids (something I've wanted for as long as I can remember, but don't have yet). With each year that comes I find myself thinking more and more about what I am contributing to the world -- and my community. Then, at the end of last summer I thought: "if I become a Big in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program, I could give back to my community AND - even if I don't have kids of my own yet - I could be a mentor for someone who needs one." So I joined the program. I've been with my little for nine months. We talk every week, and thoroughly enjoy our outings together. We've gone to the park, to the movies, to see Santa, to a show at Proctors, to MiSci in Schenectady, and to Skyzone (holy trampoline heaven), to name a few things. And it's been amazing and hubmling. 

If you can give to the 25x25 campaign, and help the BBBS program, I would be truly grateful. This fundraiser will help BBBS of the Capital Region continue to match bigs with the many littles in need in the community.

*Also, it's kind of a competition, to see who can raise the funds the fastest. :) Help a girl - and an amazing organization - out!
