Congratulations to our Executive Director, William A. Salcedo, on receiving an honorary associate degree from @brookdalecc in recognition of his leadership, service, and lifelong commitment to mentoring and youth development.
In his advice to the graduates, he shared a message that reflects the heart of mentoring and community impact: “Invest in people. Build real relationships.” Thank you William, for continuing to lead with purpose and for helping create brighter futures for young people and families. 🎓✨
REMINDER: Join our last virtual BBBS infoSession for this month and learn how you can support a young person in our community through mentorship.
One connection can open doors, build confidence, and change a future - you could be that one connection someone needs.

Our @bmwusa + Lincoln Elementary School program recently had their annual shop tour day! Littles had the opportunity to see how engines and cars are built, learn about hybrid vehicles and motorcycles, and explore the cars up close.
Experiences like these spark curiosity and new possibilities through mentorship. We’re grateful for our supportive community partners that connect our youth with learning opportunities. #BMW #BigBrothersBigSisters #BeBig #BiggerTogether

Looking back at the history of our annual gala, originally called the Matching Smiles Gala. Since the first celebration, the annual event has brought together Bigs & Littles, board members, community leaders, staff, and volunteers to celebrate the impact we create together.
That same spirit continues today. We’re grateful for a community that grows alongside us and we can’t wait to celebrate with our 50th Anniversary Celebration on June 5, 2026. 💚 Learn more ways to support this milestone celebration in the first comment below.

Did you know that mentorship can play a BIG role in promoting mental health and wellness? When young people have a trusted adult to turn to for support and guidance, they are more likely to feel confident, capable, and resilient. This #MentalHealthAwareness Month, consider becoming a Big.
Together, we can create a culture of compassion, empathy, and open dialogue. LEARN MORE ➡ /beabig
