Past Events
2025 Evening of Gratitude
On November 14th, we gathered at the Governor’s Residence to celebrate the incredible people who make our mission possible, our Bigs, Littles, Board of Directors, Advisors, supporters, and friends who help us ignite the power and promise of youth. It was an evening filled with gratitude, joy, heartfelt moments, and a deep sense of purpose. We were honored to have the event led by the wonderful emcee Alleah Reed, along with inspiring leaders, including Chairman of the Board Jay Buth and House Majority Leader Jason Rojas. One of the most memorable moments came from Big Brother Alex Beck and Little Brother Mekhi McCoter, whose powerful story of mentorship, healing, and growth moved us all.

2025 Mentor’s Classic
On September 29 at Burning Tree Country Club in Greenwich, CT, the Mentor’s Classic brought together sponsors, donors, and players for an unforgettable day of golf in support of youth mentorship. Every swing and every contribution helps us build more life-changing connections across Connecticut. A special moment came when Big Brother Joe and Little Brother Ocean, matched since 2022, reminded us of the life-changing impact of mentorship and why our mission matters.
