This year with 58 families served, we were able to gift: 🎁 130 grocery gift cards! 🎁 450 holiday gifts! 🎁 132 Littles walked away with something special! Thank you again to the Charlotte Links, Inc.

During the holidays, we often think about the special moments shared with friends and family. For children in our program, those moments are made even more meaningful with a mentor by their side. 💚 Meet Little Sister Ahnyla: Ahnyla has been matched with her Big for a year, and she loves to play basketball! One of her favorite memories with her Big is attending a Swan Lake show at the Charlotte Ballet.🩰 This holiday, you have the power to create more connections with your end-of-year gift. Join us in reaching more children who are waiting for a mentor. ✨ Click below to give to little moments that make a big difference. https://ow.ly/evJq50UsLhl

Last Friday, 100 Bigs and Littles attended the Light the Knights festival uptown courtesy of Dilworth Church. Matches enjoyed ice skating, snow tubing, a lights show, a Santa visit and goodie bags! Some matches even sharpened their ice skating skills, while others tried it for the first time, and loved it. ⛸️ Thank you, Dilworth for sponsoring! 🎄 Are you interested in having your organization sponsor a holiday event for our Littles (mentees)?
