Welcome to My Personal Page!
My name is Grace Weber! I am a junior at St. Bonaventure and I study Elementary, Early and Special Education. I joined Bona Buddies as a sophomore and had a buddy for a year! Since then, I am now a co-coordinator alongside 6 other dedicated students. This is my first semester coordinating and its for sure been an interesting one. We usually invite our Bona Buddy students on to campus, but we were not able to do that this year. We have since improvised and came up with a few different ways we can keep the program running. We have created a bag drop off program for our students. These happen once a month. For the month of November there were movie trivia, hot chocolate packets, popcorn and locally donated winter hats! We know that these times are difficult especially for kids, so seeing their faces light up when we drop off these bags makes it all worth the hours, we put in. We also created a letter writing program between mentors and students. Additionally, some students are receiving tutoring through our mentors. Although this semester looks a little different- I am so proud of this group of people (Co-coordinators and mentors alike) for putting in the hard work. A donation means another bag that we are able to make for a child in this program. On behalf of Bona Buddies, we appreciate all the donations we receive, and we will keep working hard to make sure the needs in the local area are met!
