WHY BIG BUDDY? “As Miss Louisiana International 2013, it is my responsibility to mold and shape young minds and let them know the only limitations they face are those limitations that they place on themselves. Knowing that Big Buddy’s mission to provide access to positive role models and learning experiences to children who lack resources, how could I not get involved? The lack of positive role models leading children to good life choices is the reason I committed to this. I’m only one person, but with Big Buddy, I am so much more.” Ashley says this experience has propelled her individual growth, and she cannot wait to share her new-found talents and inspiration! “Already I have tapped into a side of myself I didnt know was there. Dancing for Big Buddy has pushed my self-confidence to a new level, and it’s an amazing experience. I believe mentorship can do the same thing, and that’s why I support Big Buddy!” To purchase a DVD of the 8th Annual Dancing for Big Buddy or for more information on Dancing for Big Buddy and the Big Buddy Program, visit our website at bigbuddyprogram.org or call 225-388-9737.
