VIRTUAL BIG BREAKFAST: Thank you from our Board Chair Chelsey Owen and her Little Sister Rosy.
Were thrilled to report that so far we've raised more than $50,000 through our virtual campaign to support our 1-to-1 mentoring programs! And that's all because of you!
If you haven't had the chance to donate, there is still time. Make a gift to support our kids today!
This month, we were counting on our BIG Breakfast to raise essential funds---funds that were intended to help move many of the 700+ kids on our waitlist into supportive mentoring relationships.
Now that we've cancelled the in-person gathering for this event, that work is in danger. Big Brothers Big Sisters needs your support more than ever to make sure these kids aren't forced to keep waiting!
Will you make a donation today to our 2020 Virtual BIG Breakfast and help us make up the difference? In doing so, you'll help raise the essential support needed to keep our 1-to-1 mentoring programs moving and get our kids the Big Brother or Big Sister they've been waiting for!
Stay tuned for more from our 2020 Virtual BIG Breakfast in the coming days, as we will honor our Matches of the Year: Big Sister Katherine and Little Sister Tre'nesia, and Big Brother Lucas and Little Brother Abdi (pictured at the top of the page), as well as evo, our Community Partner of the Year. We can't wait to share their stories with you!
VIRTUAL BIG BREAKFAST DAY 5: A special message from our new CEO Paula Sardinas
Once a Little Sister herself, Paula knows firsthand the incredible impact a mentor can have on the life of a child. She grew up to become a respected leader and youth advocate, and she's ready to lead Big Brothers Big Sisters through this challenging time into our own bright future.
As you hear Paula's story, consider making a donation to welcome her to Big Brothers Big Sisters and to support youth mentoring.
