We were privileged to receive the 2024 Hall of Fame Lifetime Achievement award during last week’s Big Brothers Big Sisters of East Central Wisconsin Dream Big Gala!

There to receive the award were Board President & Chairman Marne Keller-Krikava and her husband Alec Krikava, Vice President of the Board Jim Keller and his wife Rosanne Keller, and the J. J. Keller Foundation Executive Director Monica Stage.

We are honored to join a line of partners before us that have inspired change, have championed the power of mentorship, and have embraced what it means to be an ambassador for Big Brothers Big Sisters.

As Marne Keller-Krikava reflected when receiving the honor,

“At the Foundation the question we ask ourselves is how to turn money into connections and love. Our challenge as communities, nonprofits, and foundations is to fill the gap of the village. And at the center of the village are relationships and love.”
