Jazline has been matched with her big sister Danya for almost a year now! She had a Big Sister before who had to move out of state and Jazline was a little nervous to be matched with a new Big, but now is happier than ever with how her match is going. They fed ducks at Sloan’s Lake for their first outing and have been two peas in a pod ever since.
Jazline and Danya were matched right before the pandemic and have done a phenomenal job of staying in touch by talking on the phone and video chatting. Bubbly, sweet Jazline turned out to be a perfect match for Danya’s caring, down to earth energy and they were able to get to know each other quickly despite the restrictions. During quarantine, Jazline loved calling Danya just to talk and catch up.
As soon as matches were cleared to hang out in person, Jazline and Danya were elated to see each other and enjoyed a myriad of different crafts together, including a tie dye creation! They have managed to hang out consistently every two weeks. Some of their favorite outings have included baking cookies, a trip to the pumpkin patch, kite flying, mini golf, going to the Nature and Science Museum, and more.
Danya feels so lucky to have a Little like Jazline who is so engaged and interested in whatever they do, no matter what the activity may be. Jazline is absolutely loving her time with Danya and looks forward to every hang out. Both are excited to reach their one-year anniversary and can’t wait for more adventures in the years to come.
