Sarah is 12 years old and lives in McHenry. She enjoys softball, gymnastics, roller skating, and loves to swim. Sarah could use a Big Sister to confide in and help teach her responsibility. She would love to spend time with an active Big Sister who would be the positive role model she needs.
Sarah has been waiting for a Big Sister to have fun with her for over six months.
If you would like to be a Big Sister for Sarah please call our office at 815-385-3855 or visit our website at www.bbbsmchenry.org. There are so many kids right here in our community who need a positive adult influence in their lives.
