From a lively white elephant gift exchange to a mouthwatering meal, it was the perfect way to unwind and enjoy each other’s company. The dedication, passion, and hard work of the BBBSHR team are truly inspiring. All year long, they go above and beyond to create impactful and successful one-to-one mentoring matches, creating positive change the lives of youth in our community. As the holiday season is upon us, our team will be taking this time to rest, recharge, and celebrate with family and friends.
