Today we are honored to recognize Morgan Relyea C**t who started our Young Professionals Group 10 years ago! We asked her why starting BBHLF YPG was important to her and couldn’t agree more with her response below.

“Starting a young professionals group for literacy was important to me because I know how transformative reading can be. Literacy is more than just words on a page—it’s opportunity, confidence, and connection. I wanted to bring together peers who, like me, were early in their careers but eager to give back in a meaningful way. By creating this group, we weren’t just volunteering our time—we were building a community of young leaders committed to ensuring that others have the same foundation for success that reading gave us.”

We are one month away from our Storybook Gala and we would love for you to join us for an unforgettable evening inspired by the classic romance of Romeo and Juliet. Tickets and sponsorships are available at the link in our bio.
