🎉 Celebrating an Extraordinary Match on this #MatchMonday! 🎉This incredible Big & Little match has been thriving since January 2022, and their bond has grown stronger with every adventure. Brad, who was honored as Big Brothers Big Sisters of Flint & Genesee County's 2024 Big Brother of the Year, has made such a positive impact on Alijha’s life—and it shows!Together, they’ve shared countless activities, from playing basketball and going to the gym 🏀💪, to hitting the trampoline park, roller-skating, and bowling 🎳. Brad even taught Alijha how to catch a football! 🏈They’ve also enjoyed simpler moments like walking Big’s dog at the park, sipping hot chocolate at the coffee shop ☕, and playing with puppies at the mall 🐾. They’ve celebrated the holidays together at the BBBS Holiday Party and even checked out the Flint Motorcycle Club Ice Races.One of their most memorable experiences? Attending the 2024 Big Celebration, where Brad received his award! Brad and Alijha went suit shopping together, and Alijha couldn’t have felt cooler or more stylish in his sharp new look. Check out the photo of the two of them looking dapper and confident! 🤵✨This match has been truly transformative—helping Alijha come out of his shell and grow in confidence with his Big’s support. It’s a testament to the power of mentorship.💡 Want to be a part of a story like this?
