Deadline for businesses to RSVP for Paint the Town Green is September 1, 2025
CELEBRATE THE POWER OF MENTORSHIP
#PTTGwithBBBS and #PaintTheTownGreenNevada highlights the mission of Big Brothers Big Sisters and the life-changing impact mentoring has on youth. By participating, you’ll help spark conversations, inspire others to become Bigs, and show that each of us has a role to play in creating BIGGER futures.
WHAT
This is NOT a fundraiser. We’re simply asking local businesses and organizations like yours to visibly Paint the Town Green by incorporating green into your space during the designated week. This is a powerful, community-wide initiative asking local businesses to visually champion mentorship by incorporating green into their spaces.
WHY
To inspire more individuals to step up as mentors, helping us connect more children with the life-changing relationships that empower them to thrive, dream big, and build their brightest possible futures. By participating, you’ll help spark crucial conversations and show that each of us plays a vital role in creating BIGGER futures for our youth.
HOW
It’s simple. Look for local businesses displaying green-themed items, lights, or messages across Northern Nevada. Engage with these businesses, learn more about our mission, and discover how you can Become a Big by supporting youth mentorship in our community.

Paint the Town Green #PTTGwithBBBS
We officially celebrated the conclusion of our 2026 Big Futures program! This experience is all about equipping our Littles with the confidence, clarity, and tools to navigate life after graduation.
From behind-the-scenes stadium hustle with the RenoAces to learning the realities of entrepreneurship with @ShortiesCandles, our youth proved that when you expand a perspective, you ignite potential.
Huge thanks to all the dedicated community partners, local leaders, and our hard-working BBBSNN staff who made this high-impact program a reality. The future of Northern Nevada is in very good hands.

It takes little to be BIG.
It starts by just showing up, hanging out, laughing, and sharing everyday moments right here in our community. But those small moments do something BIG in the long run.
Right now, there are Littles in our community waiting for someone just like you. By committing to become a Big, you provide the connection and belonging that empowers our youth to step into a BIG future. We’re looking for mentors (Bigs) to help us ignite the future of Northern Nevada. The investment is small, but the impact is lifelong.

Saying yes to being a Mentor doesn’t take as much time as you think. Just 4–6 hours a month can build a friendship that lasts a lifetime.
Being a Big isn’t about having extra time. It’s about choosing to spend a little of it in a way that creates a positive impact. 💚

Because of the support from @cartbarn our golfers are cruising in style, and more importantly, we’re keeping the momentum rolling for youth mentorship across Northern Nevada. Every mile driven on the course helps us empower Littles and spark new, life-changing Matches.
Thank you, Cart Barn!

#MENtorMixer2026 was a success!!
“It’s not about what you’re doing with your Little it’s about being there. We go to Costco and learn about how to shop and healthy eating. Then we get a hotdog of course.” @derek.beauvais said
Those who showed up last night took the first step toward a brighter future for all of Northern Nevada.
Thanks to everyone who competed with @renocornholeclub to support Mentorship!
