Mission Statement:
The mission of JBBBSLA is to help children achieve their full potential by participating
in innovative, effective programs that facilitate lasting mentor relationships and support
positive youth development.
Letter from our CEO, Randy Schwab
Officers
As we enter our 100th year as an agency, our motto will
be “this is only the beginning”. It’s a time to celebrate our
programs’ sustainability and move toward a future of serving
an increasing number of children.
Whether we are serving a child at camp whose family suffers
from financial limitations, or providing a mentor for a child
in need of support and guidance, our programs share a
common denominator: They provide vulnerable youth
with needed role models in safe, engaging and empowering environments.
Children in our programs have a wide range of social and emotional and/or other
challenges. Such challenges are successfully mitigated every day, thanks to our
donors, community partners, staff and volunteers.
What a journey it has been since my arrival in 2011. We are very proud of our
solid organization, talented staff, board participation, financial stability, and
programs that have stood the test of time – for 100 years. Bottom line: JBBBSLA
has never been stronger, had a bigger impact in the community, or brought so
much innovation to its programs and services.
I wholeheartedly thank our incredibly dedicated and generous Board of Directors,
the many donors, and the dedicated volunteers and partners that have made
this all possible. Together, we have created sustainable programs that are
helping thousands of children and families each year. Now, it is time to focus on
scalability.
In 2015, through new relationships with communities previously
underrepresented, we will be serving greater numbers of youth from the Persian,
Israeli, Russian-speaking and LGBTQ communities. We also will launch our new
eMentoring program, using technology as an adjunct to traditional mentoring.
This will enable us to attract busy professionals as well as those children and
adults whose traditions limit their availability, and also will enable relationships
to continue with professional support as youth transition to the college years.
At Camp Max Straus we will be expanding upon our current activities with the
LEAP Adventure Course including a Zipline and low ropes obstacle courses. The
camp will also feature a new, fully-equipped learning kitchen to complete the
full garden-to-table experience that began in 2012 with the construction of an
amazing greenhouse and healthy eating program. Dreams will continue to
come true as we provide free camp experiences to underserved communities
throughout Los Angeles including children who are homeless, in foster care or in
domestic violence shelters.
So yes, we turn 100 next year –
but it’s only the beginning.

A Tribute to
Dan Rosenson
A Year in Pictures
Dan Rosenson is a person who
makes a difference. He always
celebrates life, cherishes his wife,
family, and friends, and is a role
model in his humanitarianism.
This is evident in the impact he has
made on JBBBSLA as our Board
Chair for the past three years.
It would be impossible to sum
up all that Dan has done for our
agency in just a few paragraphs.
He has been a devoted leader,
friend, mentor, and advocate
to all of us at JBBBSLA. With
Dan’s support, JBBBSLA is better
positioned than ever before in
the community and is bringing
positive change to the children and
families we serve. We are healthy,
strong, and sustainable, thanks
to Dan’s resolve to hire new staff,
foster their success, and create a
welcoming work culture. As Randy
Schwab, our CEO, says, “Dan has
been an incredible mentor to
me. His support and friendship
for the past three years have been
invaluable, and I owe a great deal
of gratitude to him and his family.”
Dan’s tenure as Board Chair may
be ending, but his footprint
is deeply imbedded in our
foundation. In addition to
serving on the Board, Dan has
spearheaded the renovation of
our camp facilities, expanded the
infrastructure of camp, helped
raise funds for our mentoring
program, and helped guide us in
our goal to help more children.
Dan is truly a pioneer. His tenure
as Board Chair has been an
incredible journey, and he has
inspired all of us at JBBBSLA.
Thank you, Dan!

Ian Fox
Anna Fox, proud mother of Ian.
I am very grateful for Ian’s accomplishments, but
our situation was not always like this. Even though
I understood that my divorce was necessary, I could
never have anticipated the extent and the depth
of the fallout that my children, and in particular,
my son, would experience from it. It was during
middle school that my son’s behavior took a
downward turn. In 7th grade Ian was getting into
fights, was suspended twice from school, was a
terror to his math teacher, and was getting D’s and
F’s. It was very humbling for me to realize that, as
a mother, I could not meet all of my son’s needs.
It was then that I reached out for help and a friend
suggested that I look into Jewish Big Brothers Big
Sisters of Los Angeles.
We had no idea what to expect when we arrived at
JBBBSLA to meet Ian’s Big. We were both nervous.
Within the first minutes of meeting Craig I was
touched by his kindness and willingness to mentor
my son. Ian and Craig hit it off immediately and
quickly found things they had in common. While
walking back to the car, Ian was enthusiastically
telling me what they talked about and what he
liked about Craig and I was counting my blessings.
on Ian when he was writing his personal statement essays for
his college applications. The first essay discussed the effects
of the divorce on Ian’s life. The final essay had evolved into a
realization about himself that he had with Craig. Initially Ian
wanted Craig to really like him and thought he had to “edit”
himself by showing a more sanitized version of himself, his boyscout side. But over time, Ian began to feel that Craig accepted
and valued all of him and he learned to honor his whole self
and approach others with an open mind.
I witnessed the profound effect that Craig has had
Today, Ian is a thriving junior at UC Berkley
majoring in computer science. Ian is especially
grateful to Craig, whom he says shared his
curiosity and piqued his interest in technology.
Thanks to JBBBSLA Ian receives a fully paid
four-year scholarship from JBBBSLA and
is pursuing his dreams of one day going to
law school. I wholeheartedly want to thank
JBBBSLA for believing in my son and helping
him become the amazing young adult he is.

Jared Nunes
Graduate of the Witherbee Backpacking Program
My name is Jared Nunes and I am
seventeen years old. My experience
at Camp Max Straus started when
I first came to Camp Max Straus
as a Counselor in Training and
then when I backpacked to the
High Sierra’s with the Witherbee
Backpacking program.
When I was 12, my father abandoned our family. It was a very
difficult time for my mother, younger brother and me. Learning
to be the “man of the family” was a huge challenge. I lacked
the confidence. But when I turned 15 and heard about Camp
Max Straus I made a commitment to myself and my family that
I needed to implement change – that was where my journey
began.
I came in as a shy, insecure, weird teenager. Right from the start,
I knew I was a part of something truly meaningful in my life. The
energy and laughter were contagious. I immediately fell in love
with Camp Max Straus. As a Counselor in Training, the camp is a
place where I can be myself and have pure fun, while knowing
that I am making a difference in other kids’ lives. Further, my
experiences at camp give me an increased sense of confidence
and inspire me to do more for myself. It really changed me and
who I am today. Camp Max Straus and what it stands for sparked a
passion in me that I could have never discovered anywhere else.
Now that I look to my future, my main goal is to have a career where I know that I
am helping people and making a difference. I hope to go to a university in the next
year and study medicine, and then we’ll see where it goes from there. Thank you
for your support… I am so blessed to be a part of a place where memories are
made and futures are bright.
