The latest news — big and little

Whether we’re making an impact, or making headlines, there’s always something newsworthy going on at Big Brothers Big Sisters.

In the days following the mass shooting that occurred at one of our longest-standing school partners, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, we received an influx of loving messages and warm thoughts. Our Littles and Bigs (and everyone else) wanted to show their support. Our school-based program collected beautiful cards and posters to share with the staff and students at MSD. It's been amazing to witness this kind of unity and support. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, to everyone for thinking of us, our Bigs and everyone at the school. Here's a glimpse at some of the messaging we've been able to share!
