august & George
George and August were matched in December of 2023 and have been going strong ever since. August's mom describes them as "two peas in a pod.” They see one another almost every other week and engage in outings like visiting the bookstore, playing chess, and playing basketball (August always "let's George win"). Now as a mature 10-year-old, August still loves spending time with George, who reports that August is a "conscientious and polite boy" who has his feet on the ground. This match has grown into a lasting friendship that highlights the very best of what mentoring can be: consistency, connection, and a relationship that benefits both Big and Little.
