From the Desk of Ruth Schulman: A BIG Thank You!

Thank you! The Big Fall Ball raised $93,000 and counting.  

Congratulations to Bernie and Lynnette Noonan and SEFCU for each receiving BBBSCR’s first Igniting Potential Award. At the event on October 14th, these outstanding supporters were recognized for their unwavering commitment to supporting one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of our community’s youth.

There are two small words that carry great meaning — thank you! We cannot say that enough, so please allow me to express our most heartfelt gratitude one more time.

Thank you to everyone who helped make The Big Fall Ball a resounding success.  Thank you to our corporate and foundation partners, honorary committee donors, everyone who purchased tickets to the event, our fabulous in-kind donors, and our wonderful volunteers. We could not have raised $93,000 and counting without your belief in, and support for, our one-to-one mentoring programs. Together, we are empowering youth to believe in themselves to achieve educational success, make positive choices, and establish better relationships with others.

Whether this was the first BBBSCR event you attended or your 10th, we thank you for your philanthropy, and look forward to your continued support for years to come.

With my sincere appreciation and kind regards,


A thank you to our staff for making this event possible! (Pictured from left to right) back row: Dom Corker, middle row: Jessica Underhill, Noellie Medina, Cierra Daubitz, Angie Weber, Lisa O’Sullivan, Queta Duran, front row: Kortney Conley, Brianna Sinclair
