The latest Beyond the Blue & Red chronicles the story of @BuffaloBills RB @Ray_Davis07 & his journey to the NFL —a journey shaped by a pivotal mentorship through @BBBSA.

Like Ray, there are children in WNY waiting to meet their Big. Become a Big at https://t.co/hmj6QIZE4Y .

All he needed was an opportunity and the rest is history.

The @Ray_Davis07 Story is unlike anything you've ever seen before: https://t.co/qISvbzHYbC

May 14, 2022 — Never Forgotten.

Three years ago, 10 lives were taken in an act of racist violence in Buffalo.

We remember each of them, and we remain committed to building a world filled with hope, understanding, and the belief that love is stronger than hate.

Micah is a bright, funny 12-year-old from Tonawanda who’s been waiting over 5 years to be matched with a Big Brother.

He’s active, motivated, loves sports and video games, and he's looking for a Big. #EndTheWait

Today is #RandomActsofKindnessDay—dedicated to spreading generosity, compassion, and positivity! What better way to spread kindness than by becoming a Big?

As a Big, you’re not just performing a kind act—you’re changing a child’s future.

🚨 Olean Area – Mentors Needed! 🚨

Over a dozen kids in Olean, Salamanca, Portville & Franklinville are waiting for a mentor. The need is urgent! If you live in the Southern Tier, you could be the role model a child is hoping for.

Make a gift to empower potential before midnight tonight. What we raise today will directly impact how many young people we can serve in the coming year. And we know one thing is true: It takes little to be BIG. Give BIG now: https://t.co/P2z1AMcopE #BeBig #GivingTuesday

Where else would they rather be? ❄️🏈

Thanks to @Ray_Davis07 and the @BuffaloBills, our Littles enjoyed a special pregame experience at the Fieldhouse with Ray’s Big Brother, Patrick. Now, they’re bundled up for a frosty yet fun primetime game, cheering on Ray!
