Big Brother Dru and Little Brother Elijah were matched on September 15, 2020. Elijah had not really left the house since March (due to COVID-19), but Dru made him feel comfortable and brought a huge smile to his face at their first meeting! They were a great fit from the start.
Dru and Elijah plan to play basketball and have a mini picnic on their first outing. They look forward to exploring Elijah’s interests and exploring new volunteer opportunities with each other.
This match was lit with the support of Kelly Pfledderer.
Dru and Elijah are 1 of 50 matches made possible thanks to BBBSCI’s Light One Match Giving Society, a new leadership society made possible through the generosity of Al and Shary Oak.
