This past weekend was an incredible experience partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Los Angeles (BBBSLA) for their annual Beach Day. Aristotle employees and their families participated alongside BBBSLA for a full day of beach activities and an exciting sandcastle competition for 36 BBBSLA matches. As a leader focused on organizational culture and impact, I am proud to see our employees uphold one of Aristotle’s core values by giving back to our community. Contributing to such a meaningful organization and witnessing the positive impact firsthand was truly rewarding. #AristotleGivingBack #CommunityService #BBBS #BBBSLA #BeachDay #VolunteerwithPurpose

🎬✨ We had an absolute blast at the inaugural Tours Open Doors event last month! 🌟 Huge thanks to THE FIFTH and Big Brothers Big Sisters of America for making it all happen. Dozens of our Bigs and Littles had the incredible opportunity to explore the Fox Studio Lot, enjoy lunch, and get inspired by amazing speakers from various businesses at FOX Studios. This event gave our Littles a behind-the-scenes look at career paths in marketing and entertainment, sparking dreams and showing them what's possible. The excitement and inspiration were contagious! 💥 #ToursOpenDoors #BeBigLA #FoxStudios

🎉 #MatchMonday Spotlight: Deshunt & Philip 🎉 Meet Little Deshunt and Big Philip, a dynamic duo matched for an incredible 10 years! Deshunt just graduated high school and will be attending UCLA this fall to study Biology. 🌟 From the moment they were matched when Deshunt was just 8, to celebrating his 18th birthday with a shopping spree earlier this year, their bond has only grown stronger. Philip has been one of Deshunt’s BIGgest supporters, jumping up and down with joy when he heard the news of his Little Brother’s acceptance to UCLA. Their journey together continues to inspire us all, as they plan to continue onto our college preparation program: CPAC. True brothers for life! ❤️ Congratulations, Deshunt! We can't wait to see all the amazing things you will achieve at UCLA! #MentorshipMatters #UCLA #BeBigLA #ClassOf2024
