Reminder that if you are not using your Eagles tickets this weekend (or future games), you can donate them to @IndBigs, and kids who might not otherwise have a chance to see an NFL game will be thrilled to attend. Email [email protected], and tell them I sent you!

My appreciation for the power of youth mentoring goes back to my college days when I signed up to be a Big Sister. Now, as Chair of the Youth Mentoring Caucus, I work with mentoring champions like @MarcusAllenBBBS and @artisnstevens to expand impactful programs like @BBBSA.

Today we lost a legend. #KatherineJohnson was a NASA mathematician, known trailblazer, and the inspiration behind the film 'Hidden Figures'✨
We're saddened by the passing of celebrated #HiddenFigures mathematician Katherine Johnson. Today, we celebrate her 101 years of life and honor her legacy of excellence that broke down racial and social barriers: go.nasa.gov/2SUMtN2
