September is Big Brothers Big Sisters Month nationwide! We celebrated with a spirit month coordinated by our Resource Coordinator, Alanna Salas ! Every Monday we had a different theme which our office loved participating in. From wearing our favorite BBBS merch to recreating looks from our favorite memory we had a blast celebrating all month long. Even though the month has come to an end, make sure to check out the many different programs that Big Brothers Big Sisters Hawai‘i offers!

Over the weekend, Big Brothers Big Sisters Hawai‘i had a blast at the 76th Annual Floral Parade! A HUGE mahalo to Mrs. Hawaii 2024 Melissa Filek (Howard) for your continued support to our organization and giving us this opportunity to be out there in our community. Youth Shayla had the chance to sit alongside her mentor, Mrs. Hawaii, and youth Haley got to proudly hold our banner with her mentor and our brand ambassador Joey Ann Staggs! Mahalo to everyone cheered and supported Big Brothers Big Sisters Hawaiʻi at the parade!
