We are excited to match 10 year-old Bryon soon! Bryon is eager to be matched with a Big Brother that he is able to talk to, play sports with, and he wants to have someone that can teach him cool things. When we asked why he wants a Big Brother, he shared “I’m the oldest of me and my brother so it will be nice to have a big brother that can teach me things and have fun with.”

The 2020 census deadline is fast approaching (9/30)! Current estimates are showing low self-response rates in SC could lead to an undercount of as many as 53,400 people, which means we could lose out on close to $1 billion in federal aid over the next decade. Check the link below for more information so SC can get the funding it needs and deserves: http://ow.ly/3k3R50BsNqm

Join us in congratulating Tranese Heatley on her one-year anniversary as Match Coordinator with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Lowcountry. Her frontline work with parents, Littles and Bigs has resulted incredibly strong matches. As Match Coordinator, Tranese screens prospective Bigs, interviews families, makes matches, and supports them every month with individualized coaching. According to Tranese, "I love being involved in the process of changing these kids’ lives. Whether the change is big or small, I know that we are making a difference." If we had to sum up Tranese in a few words we would say she is goal oriented, professional, optimistic, approachable, and fun! Thanks for being on #Team160 Tranese!
