Donating gently used clothes, textiles, and supplies is a great way to support our local youth. Visit https://f.mtr.cool/nuxr7y6keg to find the donation bin closest to you and learn more about how your donations make an impact in our community.

We have 50 bins across the Puget Sound region and drop-offs at Value Village Lacey and Issaquah locations benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters, too!

We are thrilled to welcome Olu Ikuesan, Ed.S., to the BBBSPS Board of Directors.

Olu became a Big Brother in college and mentored his Little for seven years, through middle school and high school. They are still in touch today. His belief is simple and powerful: each generation has a responsibility to give back to the next.

Olu is a former math teacher who now partners with school districts across Washington and Alaska at Savvas Learning Company. He is also a proud member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated.
Olu is proud of his Nigerian heritage and his mother's South Georgia roots.

We are honored to have him on our board.

Fun fact: Olu saw the Northern Lights for the first time in Norway, and he loves hiking and landscape photography. If you have a favorite Washington trail or view, share it below. He is always looking for his next one.

Please join us in welcoming Olu.

Building more than LEGO, we’re building connections. 🧱💚

Bigs, Littles, and BBBSPS staff came together for a fun LEGO-building activity filled with creativity, laughter, and meaningful time to connect with one another.

And these LEGO creations aren’t just for fun! Every piece will play an important role at our upcoming Big Gala - September 26th 2026.

We can’t wait for you to see how it all comes together and celebrate the power of mentorship, connection, and community with us.
