HL Rotary an Elite Sponsor for Big Brother/Big Sisters

 

Carol Gage Regional Director of Mid Michigan Big Brothers Big Sisters recently spoke to the Rotary Club of Houghton Lake about the program where a case worker will match a potential Big Brother or Big Sister as a mentor to a child aged 5-15. "Bigs" and "littles" may meet as Lunch Buddies where they meet at the school for lunch or as a traditional match where they can meet outside of the school environment for activities. Potential Big Brothers/Sisters are screned for sfaety and case workers are available to provide guidance and plan or recommend activities. Rotary President Jim VanSice presented Carol with a $1,000 donation to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Lakes program in Roscommon County. To become a sponsor or become involved with Big Broth­ers Big Sisters of the Lakes, call caseworker Leslye Vest at (989) 808-1296 or call regional direc­tor Carol Gage at (989) 386-9304.
