Big Brothers Big Sisters of the North Bay


One Consistent Role Model

Ally was nine years old and in her second foster home when she met her Big Sister, Kathy. When Kathy first met her, Ally was unruly and unable to show affection. Slowly, Kathy encouraged Ally’s natural athleticism, supported her curious mind and embraced Ally as a member of her own family.

In the past eight years, Ally has been in six foster homes. Through all of it, Kathy has been Ally’s one consistent friend and role model. Today, Ally is a senior in high school who gets As and wants to go to college or join the military.
