Little’s High School: Whiteland Community High School

Little Brother Christopher and Big Brother Devin Bender have been matched together for 6 years. Christopher will be graduating from Whiteland Community High School in June 2023. Come Fall Christopher is planning to attend Indiana University studying Finance.

During their time in the BBBSCI (Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Indiana) program Little Brother Christopher and Big Brother Devin enjoyed playing Magic the Gathering, Rock Band, visiting card shops, and attending our agency sponsored event Match Anniversary Party at Dave and Busters. Christopher shared that Devin has taught him to become more independent, hobbies that can continue, helped him become more outgoing, flexible with his choices, helped him with problem solving and working towards his future. Devin looks forward to seeing Christopher graduate and his plans afterwards.

Devin said if he could share one thing with Christopher about his impact on his life he would say, "Having a playful spirit, you can lose some of that as you grow up and he taught me that it’s okay to have fun." The BBBSCI Family will be rooting for both Christopher and Devin after graduating from the program. We wish you both the best of luck!
