The Big Impact: Judy & Leah’s Story
JUDY & Leah's story
At Big Brothers Big Sisters of North Simcoe, every connection has the potential to create something much bigger than a friendship. It creates a ripple effect of confidence, hope, and possibility. Judy and Leah’s story is one of those ripples — a perfect example of The Big Impact mentorship can have on a young life.
From their first meeting, at a holiday party in 2023, Judy saw Leah’s curiosity and energy shine through. Over time, they built a bond rooted in trust, laughter, and a shared sense of adventure. Whether visiting the Toronto Zoo, baking cookies, or simply spending time together, their moments became something much greater. Leah gained confidence, found comfort in being herself, and discovered the joy of having someone who believes in her.
Stories like Judy and Leah’s show us that The Big Impact does not happen overnight. It grows slowly through kindness, encouragement, and shared experiences. We are proud to celebrate their journey as part of The Big Impact campaign and invite others to see how small moments of mentorship can change lives in ways we can never fully measure.
