Louis and Dwight
Louis and Dwight
Louis and Dwight have been matched since July 2023 and continue to meet weekly, sharing a strong bond and excellent communication with Louis’ Parent/Guardian, Tamecko. Before being matched, Louis had waited 1,839 days for a mentor. Since then, Dwight has made it his goal to expose Louis to experiences beyond his daily life, taking him to places like the Kentucky Horse Park, Cabela’s, and Dick’s Sporting Goods. Their outings are filled with learning and exploration, followed by meals where Louis enjoys trying new things. The pair also actively participate in BBBS events and are deeply grateful for the program.
Dwight’s impact goes beyond mentorship. He recently helped improve Louis’ living conditions by securing a new bed, enabling Louis to sleep better. Dwight has also sponsored summer camp opportunities for Louis and his sister, ensuring they have enriching activities while their mom works. From shopping for necessities to finding ways to enhance Louis’ life, Dwight’s kindness and dedication exemplify the life-changing power of mentorship. This match reflects the heart of BBBS’ mission, creating a brighter future for Littles like Louis.
