Hello! My name is Samiya, and I am the Director of Operations of the National Team. My work with Perfect Pair is incredibly meaningful to me, and I appreciate your support as we work to create authentic intergenerational connections.

As a college student, I was matched for two years with my pair, who I shared a passion for learning with! Through our various meetings, we talked about so many ways to learn new things and how there is almost no experience you can have without learning something new. When we weren't chatting, we spent a lot of time working on different puzzles or even cleaning up the garden behind the building in the spring and summer. My meetings with her were one of my fondest experiences throughout my college career.

Your donation makes it possible for us to support pairs like my pair and I and bring this connection to other students and older adults.

Thank you!
