Bremer County Community Based Big of the Year:

Brittany Schmitt

Consistent and reliable are two words that perfectly describe Brittany Schmitt, Bremer County’s Community Based Big of the Year.  After being matched with her Little Sister, Mackenzie, in March of 2013 she has consistently spent time with her – very rarely going a week or two without a visit.

Mackenzie really enjoys the time that she gets to spend with Brittany and was happy to hear that she received the Big of the Year nomination.  “She deserves it because we have a lot of fun together,” said Mackenzie about the award.  The match enjoys spending time together doing a wide variety of activities and attending Big Brothers Big Sisters match events. Mackenzie’s mother is very happy to have her involved in the program and feels that Brittany is a great Big Sister.

“I have learned a lot from Mackenzie and have enjoyed my time with her so far.  I hope to continue to grow our relationship and mentor her in a positive way,” states Brittany in regards to her involvement in the program thus far.

Congratulations on a great achievement!
