2014 Alabama Big Brother of the Year

We are proud to announce that our 2014 Big Brother of the Year, Ky Sevier, has also been named Big Brother of the Year for the State of Alabama. In January, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Birmingham awarded the 2014 Big Brother and Big Sister of the Year. Big Brother of the Year, Ky Sevier, and Big Sister of the Year, Barbara Bowlby, were chosen for their commitment and dedication to their “Littles” and for being excellent mentors and role models.

Ky was matched with his Little Brother, Marvin, in November of 2011. Ky and Marvin both motivate each other in all areas of their lives. Since Ky and Marvin have been matched, Marvin has transformed to a more confident, funny, and committed student. He is involved in many after school activities such as the wrestling team. Ky has encouraged Marvin to work hard and they have both enjoyed seeing the benefits of Marvin’s hard work. 

We would like to thank both Ky and Barbara for being excellent mentors.  Their generosity with their time and friendship have changed lives and set an example for others to follow.
