Littles, Bigs, and their families gathered at KEEN Footwear last month to celebrate the 23 Littles graduating from high school and the BBBS program in 2025. These incredible young people will go on to college, trade schools, the workforce, and wherever else their dreams take them.
We’re excited to announce that this year’s graduation rate for BBBS Littles is 95%, far surpassing Oregon’s overall graduation rate of 81%! These teens worked hard for this achievement, and had a caring, consistent mentor to support them along the way.
