On Thursday, September 8, 2022, BBBSC held our annual gala at Mile High Station followed by an After Party at Ironworks! We had the honor of Artis Stevens, President, and CEO at BBBS-America speak on the importance of coming together to make a difference in the community. Alumni Little Robert Franklin II spoke on the impact BBBSC had on his life. He also received the first-ever Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) Award for embodying our values and commitment to JEDI.

Little Keke and Big Amber were announced as this year's Empower Match of the Year. Learn more about their story here. Guests viewed our Alumni Video which featured Robert and three other Alumni that shared their story of impact. The night ended with an amazing Paddle Raise, silent auction, and a memorable After Party filled with laughter and dancing thanks to the talented DJ Bella Scratch. Thanks again to all the sponsors and guests for supporting BBBSC's mission and for empowering a bold future.
