Big Brothers Big Sisters still needs 21 more helpers

DeKALB – The local Big Brothers Big Sisters program was looking to get 30 men to volunteer as big brothers in 30 days.

BBBS Director Courtney Denison said their “30 Men in 30 Days” initiative drew nine male volunteers, which is not enough people to mentor the 30 boys on their waiting list.

“Instead of asking for money around Christmas, we’re asking for the commitment of time to a child,” Denison said.
