After losing his father to brain cancer, Alumni Little Shane didn't just find a mentor in his Big Brother Chris—he found family. They've shared BIG moments, like announcing a first-round NFL Draft pick live on air (remember that?), and the everyday ones too, like learning how to drive. The result is something rare: a connection built to last a lifetime. That's why this photo means so much: our 2024 Big and Little of the Year, Chris and Shane, side by side as Shane begins his first day of college. These are the moments that matter most—and we're grateful to play even a small role in making them possible. This #BBBSMonth, we're celebrating matches like Chris and Shane's while working to ensure more young people can experience the same life-changing connection. Together, we can turn celebration into action for those still waiting. #BeBig
