Events – We offer a full program of annual events throughout the year, with opportunities for fun, fundraising and sponsorship, including:

  • Big of the Year Gala (May - Boston): ALL of our "Bigs" are tremendous examples of the spirit of volunteerism, but we also believe that, in any endeavor, excellence should be recognized and honored. This annual celebration of our dedicated volunteers features appearances by sports and media personalities, an auction of highly sought after art, travel, leisure, unique sports packages and rare sports memorabilia. This event includes a dinner, awards ceremony and live & silent auctions.
  • Bowl for Kids Sake (early May – Attleboro, MA): A fun afternoon of team bowling with prizes for participants and a silent auction.
  • Golf Classic (early June – Stow, MA area): One day, top golf courses, 500 golfers, food, fun and the most amazing auction that has included opportunities for private island getaways, access to the most private and prized golf clubs in the world, tours and other great experiences. One of Greater Boston's premiere charity golf tourneys.
  • Blooming Bids (late June – Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket): A social evening featuring silent and live auctions of plants, planters, gardens, art and other keepsakes and experiences, just in time for the summer.
  • "Big" Golf Tournament (late June – Boston, Western suburbs): Bigs, their friends, and families are all encouraged to play in the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Mass Bay Golf Tournament.
  • Iron Teams Relay (late June – Nantucket): Join competitive and some not-so-competitive teams for this annual event. Run, swim, paddle and bike through historic downtown Nantucket, adjacent to rolling moors, in crystal clear harbor waters, and over pristine beaches.
  • BBBSMB 4th Annual Golf Tournament present by Jeffrey A. Leerink and Leerink Swann (late July – Plymouth, MA): Join us for a great day of golf clients, co-workers or friends, in support of children in need in our community. Participants and their guests enjoy cocktails, silent and live auctions, dinner, and dancing.
  • The Rodman Ride For Kids (late September – Foxboro, MA): Thousands of cyclists pedal through Southeastern Massachusetts to help children. Riders choose a 25, 50, or 100 mile bike tour and help Big Brothers Big Sisters of Mass Bay raise funds through corporate sponsorships and individual donations. All routes are flat, and begin and end at the Rodman Health and Fitness Center on Route One in Foxboro, Mass.
  • The Big Night 2.0 (Feb 11 – Boston, MA): Consistently recognized as “Party of the Year” by the Boston media, this event features chart-topping entertainment, fine cuisine created by world-renowned chefs and live auctions for stunning rewards. Each Big Night has a theme and guests dress accordingly. A real antidote to the winter blues and a chance to support our efforts to match and support more kids.
  • Golf Fore Kids  (June - Sandwich, MA): This 8th annual golf tournament is held at the Ridge Club, an 18-hole championship golf course with a scenic club house and expansive practice facilities.
