Big Brothers Big Sisters Match of the Month December:
Mike Harpold and Tylar


"Before I met Mike, my life was very different. I was shy, and didn't feel like I was good at anything. Over the course of our match (Almost 6 years!), Mike has really helped me find what I'm good at, and help me strengthen them. I feel like Mike is truly a friend, and someone I look up to. I know that our friendship will last a lifetime. There's not another person in the world I'd replace with Mike."

You can make a difference like Mike has! Volunteer to be a Big Brother or Big Sister. Call 247-3350, or go to www.bbbsak.org.
