Calling all inspirational women! Big Sisters need your help!
Big Sisters' Laurie Wilde with Mary Anne Bracewell during the Man Overboard! cruiseNow that Broad Horizons has increased their membership with even more members onboard, we figured this was a great time to do even more good things for other women across the country!
As a company, we share a committment to providing all women with enriching & inspiring experiences. By teaming up with Big Sisters, we hope to inspire a whole new generation of young women to aspire to an exciting, enriching & empowered life.
Across the country, there are thousands of 'Little Sisters' waiting to be matched. In Sarnia-Lambton alone, there are over 50 girls looking for a mentor. Do you have the time?
Over the years, we've had the pleasure of getting to know so many of you personally - and what a generous, intelligent and fun group of women you are! If you - or anyone you know - can spare a bit of free time, Big Sisters would sure love to hear from you.
There are programs to suit everyone's schedules and skills.
