Big Sister Lisa Cramer pictured with Little Sister Tamara (Hopewell, VA) as the two were honored for being the 2008 Big Sister/Little Sister of the Year.

Lisa and Tamara are continuing their one-to-one mentoring relationship into year number five. Below is a quote from Little Sister Tamara's acceptance speech, "Lisa has been my Big Sister since the third grade. I used to be shy and quiet and I really hated reading. Now, after so many years together, Lisa has become my best friend. She has helped me come out of my shell. I talk a lot more and enjoy reading. I am glad that she has helped me like she did. We have a lot of fun together. We have done more things than I can think of. I really enjoy her company. This program has helped me a lot, so thank you all so much!"
