Nick Lachey Is Newest Addition To Big Brothers Big Sisters Family

TV Star and Singer is official Centennial Spokesperson

Nick Lachey, the accomplished singer and star of the hit reality program “Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica,” has added another “big” project to his portfolio – helping us celebrate our centennial anniversary.

Nick will headline our main Centennial event, the Grand Reunion Centennial Scoop, and will be joined by such famous personalities as football great Lynn Swann and basketball legend Bill Russell, as well as countless others who have devoted their time and energies to helping at-risk youth.

“We couldn’t think of a better star than Nick Lachey to headline the event.  His involvement will serve as a model for a younger generation of men and women to consider mentoring youth in their own communities.” said Judy Vredenburgh, president and chief executive officer of Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. 

“It’s amazing to me how you can change a young person’s life by spending as little as one hour a week with them sharing simple things like a pizza or an ice cream cone.  It’s really about being a friend,” said Lachey.  “I hope my involvement can help create more matches in the more than 5,000 communities nationwide where Big Brothers Big Sisters has a presence,” added Lachey.

You can join Nick in our celebrating our centennial through the Match 100 Challenge.
