60TH ANNIVERSARY &
ALUMNI ENGAGEMENT

2026 IS A MILESTONE YEAR FOR BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF DANE COUNTY - OUR 60TH ANNIVERSARY!

For six decades, we’ve been igniting potential, building lasting connections, and strengthening our community through the power of one-to-one mentoring.

As we celebrate this legacy, we’re also looking forward. And in honor of our 60th year, we’re launching our new Alumni Ambassador Program, an initiative designed to formally engage former Bigs and Littles in shaping the future of BBBS.

Our Alumni Ambassadors will play a key role in:
• Advancing fundraising efforts to support more Matches
• Expanding community outreach and awareness
• Sharing their stories to inspire the next generation of Bigs, Littles, and supporters

This anniversary isn’t just about reflecting on 60 years of impact; it’s about activating the people who helped build this legacy. Together, with our alumni leading the way, we’re building long-term visibility, capacity, and sustainability for the next 60 years and beyond.

Want to get involved? Review the role description, fill out the Alumni Ambassador Form, or refer an Alumni Ambassador.

 

VOLUNTEER, DONATE, AND EMPOWER THE NEXT GENERATION

Our 60th Anniversary marks a time not just for celebration, but for renewed commitment to the next generation. To build on six decades of impact and meet the urgent demand for support, we have two critical goals: welcoming new volunteer mentors and securing financial resources to ensure our program remains safe, successful, and sustainable.

Generous individuals dedicating their time or making a donation are essential to making our 60th year the most impactful yet.
