Gagnante de notre concours “Partagez votre histoire”

Posted by Jennifer Mitchell in VolunteeringMentoringGFGSOBigsBIGNews

Nous avons récemment organisé le concours "Partagez votre histoire" visant à recueillir auprès de nos jumelages des témoignages sur leur expérience avec GFGSO. Nous avons reçu 11 histoires extraordinaires qui témoignent de l'importance de nos programmes dans la communauté. Nous offrons une carte cadeau de 25$ en guise de récompense au gagnante du concours : Alexandre Couture Gagnon.

Alexandre nous a dit qu'elle avait décidé de devenir bénévole au sein du programme de Mentorat scolaire parce que ce dernier lui semblait idéal comme première expérience auprès de Grands Frères Grandes Sœurs d'Ottawa (GFGSO): il requiert un engagement assidu et constant mais il n'est pas accaparant au niveau du temps.
