Rebecca and Aaliyah

October 2023

They ain't afraid of no ghost! Meet Big Rebecca and Little Aaliyah!

Who you gonna call? Rebecca and her Little, Aaliyah, are ready to bust some ghosts in their awesome matching Halloween costumes! We love seeing our Bigs and Littles having fun and creating lasting memories together.

Rebecca and Aaliyah have been matched for two and a half years now, and they’ve become best friends.

When we recently asked “What impact has your Little made in your life?,” Rebecca said “Everything! I love being able to teach her new things and we have experienced so much together. I love being matched with her.”

Mentoring relationships like Rebecca and Aaliyah’s are essential for kids’ development. Big Brothers Big Sisters provides support, guidance, and friendship to children who need it most.
