On Tuesday, April 21, 2021 at 7:00PM, BBBS of NYC will host Sidewalks of New York 2021 Virtual Celebration a virtual re-imagining of our annual Awards Dinner as a livestream broadcast online. This virtual event will bring together BBBS of NYC leadership, partners, supporters, Bigs, and Littles for an inspiring night of celebration. We are thrilled Soledad O’Brien will return as Host, and Jonathan Bram, BBBS of NYC Co-Chairman and Partner at Global Infrastructure Partners, will serve as Dinner Chair.

This year, we are honoring Cathy Engelbert, Commissioner of the WNBA, with our Trailblazer Award in recognition of the significant and unparalleled commitment demonstrated by the WNBA/NBA to lead the social justice charge and positively impact the communities we serve; and Verizon with BBBS of NYC’s first Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Award for demonstrating behaviors and leading initiatives to address inequities within our communities, in the workforce, and in the boardroom.

We will also pay tribute to the legacy of Edward L. Gardner, Chairman Emeritus in Memoriam, who for 40 years was the heart and soul of Sidewalks. To honor his lasting impact, the inaugural Edward L. Gardner Leadership Award will be presented to Gerald Hassell, former Chairman and CEO of BNY Mellon and BBBS of NYC Trustee Emeritus, for his tireless dedication and boundless generosity to BBBS of NYC.
