Emily Borcherding
Emily is no stranger to Big Brothers Big Sisters. Her first Big Brothers Big Sisters experience began in 2004 when she was paired with her first Little. Over time, the match grew, her Little went on to attend college, joined the Army, and Emily pursued her Master's degree. After completing her degree, Emily contacted Big Brothers Big Sisters with interest in serving as a mentor to another child.
In 2013, Emily and Kaitlyn were matched and began their journey together. Kaitlyn's father was searching for another adult to provide guidance and companionship. Emily has gone above and beyond her mentoring role by supporting Kaitlyn's interest. Emily attends Kaitlyn's concerts and sporting events and has introduced her to new experiences such as taking Kaityln to her first UNI Panthers game. What was once a new experience, has now become one of Kaitlyn and Emily's favorite things to do together. Emily and Kaitlyn can be found participating in community events as well as frequent attendees at the Big Brothers Big Sisters match activities.
Emily's commitment doesn't stop at being a Big, she continues to serve as a strong advocate of the Big Brothers Big Sisters mission. She encourages others to support Big Brothers Big Sisters by volunteering as a mentor or participating in agency fundraisers.
Emily truly makes a difference in her Little's life and has helped the agency bring about great change in the community.
Congratulations Emily!
