Big Sister Mahsati and Little Brother Zaedyn have only been matched for about 5 months but have really clicked. Mahsati goes above and beyond to plan outings with Zaedyn. Mahsati is a coupon queen and has been extremely resourceful in getting the match free tickets and discounted tickets for their outings. She meticulously plans every outing, and always ensures to reschedule any if she has to miss – which is more than anyone asks for. She’s extremely dedicated and focused on Zaedyn entirely.

Big Sister, Lindsay McHardy is a volunteer and also a student. Over the summer she took a summer job that had her working out of town majority of the summer. Although she was not able to meet with her Little as consistently as she would have liked, she used one of her days off to take her Little to Jasper for the day. They explored around, bought matching sweaters and had a full day of fun together.

Big Sister Gwen, and Little Sister Holly are still meeting once a month even though Gwen is living in Kelowna to take care of her family. Since she comes back to Edmonton frequently, she makes time every trip to see Holly. Holly has just started high school this year, and the match is looking at getting Holly her first job! They’ve been matched for over 2 years and still love spending time together cooking and baking.
