KINDNESS IS FREE IN THE ROSE PARADE
We hope you were able to catch our members in action at the 136th annual Tournament of Roses Parade on New Year’s Day 2025!
The Kindness is Free float, proudly listed as #4 in the lineup, was a spectacular sight, spreading a message of kindness to millions watching on TV, streaming online, and along Colorado Blvd.
Months of dedication, teamwork, and creativity from our members, staff, and community, made possible by the generous support of the Skylight Foundation, brought this stunning 55-foot float to life. Its intricate design, vibrant colors, and meaningful theme were a testament to the hard work and passion poured into every detail.
This year marked only the second time in history that the Boys & Girls Club was featured in this world-renowned parade—a true honor and milestone for our organization.
Thank you to everyone who cheered us on, whether you joined us in person, tuned in live, or caught us in the re-runs.
Together, we celebrated the powerful reminder that Kindness is Free—and it’s for everyone!
