Warning: Heartwarming Story Luke (Big) and Khailo (Little) have been matched for the past 3 years. Coming from a sole-parent family household, his mom recognized when Khailo was young, the importance of a positive male role model in Khailo's life.... BBBS has done just that, and opened up new and exciting opportunities for Khailo, such as: Paintballing Go-carting Mechanical work Raquetball, basketball and baseball Attending Pats Hockey Games and Participating in Tim Horton's Camps A quote from Khailo's mom, reinforces the value of supporting BBBS: "The impact that [BBBS] has had on my son’s life is indescribable and I remain grateful. Big Brothers is contributing GREATLY to fostering a new generation of healthy boys who are likely to be contributing members of our society. My son even talks about the idea of becoming a Big Brother himself in the future to "pay it forward", because he knows what it has meant to him and what young boys are seeking while growing up." Thank you, Luke, for being a Big deal for youth such as Khailo! If you want to support Big's, such as Luke, help make a difference, donate here: https://regina.ca/donate Powered by PTI
