Our Mission
Benicians Adopting Benicia (BAB) is a community-driven organization dedicated to enhancing the vibrancy, beauty, and spirit of our town. Through volunteer efforts, local partnerships, and civic engagement, we work to create a thriving, welcoming, and connected community for residents and visitors alike.

What We Do
Strengthening Community Connections
A thriving town starts with its people. BAB unites residents, businesses, and volunteers, creating a network of support, pride, and collaboration. By working together on meaningful projects, we foster a deep sense of belonging and ensure Benicia remains a welcoming and vibrant place for all.
Supporting Local Business & Schools
Championing the shops and businesses that give Benicia its one-of-a-kind character. Together, we are creating a Benicia High School volunteer club that gives students meaningful opportunities to make a positive impact in our community — working alongside BAB volunteers at cleanups, beautification projects, and special events, as well as creating their own.
Preserving & Enhancing Benicia's Beauty
A beautiful community is a thriving community! BAB organizes volunteer-led beautification projects that keep our parks, public spaces, and local landmarks clean, inviting, and well-maintained. Every effort helps ensure that Benicia remains one of the most picturesque places to live, work, and visit.
Honoring Those Who Serve & Protect
At BAB, we believe in showing gratitude to our heroes — the military members, first responders, and community leaders who dedicate their lives to protecting and uplifting Benicia. Whether through recognition events, banners, community outreach, or heartfelt acts of appreciation, we strive to make sure their sacrifices never go unnoticed.
Boosting Tourism & Showcasing Our Charm
Benicia is a hidden gem — full of history, charm, and breathtaking waterfront views — and BAB works to make sure the world knows it! By promoting local events, attractions, and cultural experiences, we help bring in visitors who contribute to the economy, enjoy all Benicia has to offer, and leave with a lasting appreciation for our special town.
