Welcome back to the Big Futures Campaign Insider Update

We are excited to share the latest progress and updates to our effort to create a new home and headquarters for mentoring in our community!

It has been a while since we have shared an Insider Update and we’ve got LOTS of BIG news for you, so let’s get started! 


Construction Update!

Eglin+Bresler Architects Selected



This summer Big Brothers Big Sisters selected Eglin+Bressler Architects to create the plans for our new Mentoring Center. Tatyana Bressler and her team of professionals have been hard at work designing an open, functional, and inviting space for our Bigs and Littles to enjoy.


Eglin+Bresler Architects strongly believes in a team approach consisting of close interaction along with the Client, our professional Consultants, jurisdictional Authorities, and Contractors. This approach has proven effective through the success of the firm’s many projects throughout the years. Tatyana leads the team with the enthusiasm necessary to meet the stringent demands of today’s building technologies while developing designs that are creative, affordable, efficient, and environmentally conscious.

Interior Designer Selected!

Michelle Carnes, Owner of Michelle Carnes Designs has been selected to oversee the interior design, including furnishings, of our Mentoring Activity Center.


Michelle has been involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Arizona for many years. She began her relationship with Big Brothers Big Sisters as a Big Sister, her experience led her to serve on the Board of Directors, and was selected to Chair the Board in 2020 and 2021.

Michelle Carnes has been designing interiors since 1995 and provides clients with thoughtful and creative designs while providing exceptional service and building long term relationships.

Contractor Selection Underway

The Capital Campaign and Building Committee, with the guidance of Eglin+Bressler Architects are currently reviewing construction bids and we’ll be announcing the final selection by October 15th!

Stay tuned for more details…

We made our move!

We have relocated to our new administrative office space that is adjacent to the site of the future mentoring activity center. Quarters will be a little cramped until we can spread out across the two buildings on our new campus, but we are excited to settle in.
