Helping Big Brothers Big Sisters Mentor More Children

Betsy and Jakeia's relationship has lasted far beyond their official match.

Big Brothers Big Sisters offers a proven mentoring program that helps at-risk young people develop positive relationships that contribute to better futures. To help strengthen affiliates in the Carolinas and expand their reach to more children from single-parent or no-parent homes, The Duke Endowment in 2000 launched a five-year, $2.1 million effort that involved 48 grants and 15 affiliates in North Carolina and South Carolina.
