Little Amina and Big Wendy

Little Amina and Big Wendy

Little Amina and Big Wendy have been matched for two years! They spend a lot of time together and love to chit-chat! Their favorite activities are swimming, going out to lunch, and attending Big Brothers Big Sisters events! Right now, Wendy and Amina are working on reading skills and math skills. They like to practice multiplication tables and talk about books while they’re in the car together. Amina’s mother is so grateful that Amina has a role model who can help her work on these skills. Amina also is very interested in fashion and modeling, and might want to be a model when she gets older! This is a very exciting opportunity for her, and she is thrilled to be participating!
