With a goal of matching 2,011 kids by the year 2011 we need YOUR help to make this campaign a success! 2,011 children with mentors is just the beginning of what the real need is in this community. How many children can you help take off the waiting list? 10, 5, 2 or even 1? A gift of $2,011 will take two children off the waiting list. Whatever donation you are able to make will help make an impact on this community.


With more than 200 children on the waiting list we are not only needing mentors, but also funding. Donate today!


Campaign Chair and the Des Moines Register President, Laura Hollingsworh, announced the Register will be donating over $20,000 to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Iowa 2,011 by 2011 Campaign. This dontation will help take twenty children off the waiting list. Check out event photos and news coverage from the campaign kick-off event.
