Roger and Liam
Roger and his Big Liam have been matched since October 2018! Liam was a freshman at the College of the Holy Cross when he decided to volunteer with BBBS. Roger’s mom reached out to the BBBS staff because he was having a hard time with his transition into High School. Thankfully, the BBBS staff was able to get Roger and Liam to meet in person at Holy Cross. Liam even introduced Roger to his football coaches and teammates to really build a community of support for him.
