Join us for our third annual Big Futures Luncheon! This isn’t the same old nonprofit luncheon— you’ll be up on your feet with unique, hands-on activities to get your creative ideas flowing as you brainstorm ways your company can support workforce development alongside Big Brothers Big Sisters Columbia Northwest. This is an event you won’t want to miss!

  • Network with a variety of companies and community leaders (meet new, creative people!)
  • Learn from successful matches (be inspired by Bigs and Littles making a BIG difference!)
  • Brainstorm together the ways you and your business can make a greater impact on the workforce of tomorrow (contribute creative ideas to build a better workforce!)
