Big Brothers Big Sisters is pleased to announce that its $100,000 Impact100 South Jersey grant will allow Big Brothers Big Sisters to increase the number of kids it serves through new technology. Mentor 2.0 is a curriculum-based, online program model that lets "Big" mentors and "Little" mentees interact weekly through the iMentor program. Big Brothers Big Sisters anticipates Mentor 2.0 will reduce some of the challenges the organization faces recruiting "Bigs" because of their travel commitments and time limitations.

Impact100 South Jersey Core Mission Grants are intended to help local organizations reach the next level and increase access to their services. Big Brothers Big Sisters' leadership believes that Mentor 2.0 is the best tool to transform the way the organization serves its children in one-to-one mentoring relationships. Big Brothers Big Sisters anticipates that the grant will be a game-changer, catapulting the number of children it will be able to serve.
