Big Brothers Big Sisters of Fond du Lac County is excited to welcome another new member to the Board of Directors, Ryan Galligan! Galligan is the Chief Information Officer at Fox Valley Savings Bank and joined the BBBS board in April.

“This is such an exciting time to join BBBS because of all the incredible changes happening. I am so excited to see this program grow and continue to serve the youth of Fond du Lac County. It’s a privilege to serve on the board and help drive the mission’s success.”

Growing up, Galligan loved playing Monopoly and wanted to be an airline pilot. Now, he’s making a difference in the community as both a board member and a Big Brother! Galligan became a mentor in the school-based program in February and visits his Little at Chegwin Elementary School once a week.

“I get as much, if not more, from the mentoring relationship as my Little does.”

In his free time, you can find Galligan visiting the park with his wife and two daughters or planning their annual trip to Disney World.
