Maynard Cooper & Gale is pleased to announce Christie Borton was named the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Birmingham's "Big Sister of the Year." Big Brothers Big Sisters is the nation's largest donor and volunteer supported mentoring network. The program makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers and children, ages 6 through 18, in communities across the country. Christie joined Big Brothers Big Sisters over five and half years ago and has been matched with her Little Sister, Tamiah Murray, since that time. Christie and Tamiah enjoy spending time hiking, swimming, going to the movies, and playing games, and have taken trips to the Georgia Aquarium and Six Flags to celebrate when Tamiah made the honor roll at her school. Christie is a member of the firm's Real Estate and Banking and Finance practices.
