Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwestern Illinois just landed a major funding boost—$230,000—to expand school-based mentoring in Belleville and O’Fallon, connecting more kids with life-changing mentors. The BJC Memorial Foundation is leading the charge with $180,000 over three years to launch a new program at Abraham Lincoln Elementary, while HSHS St. Elizabeth’s Hospital chips in $50,000 to grow mentoring at LaVerna Evans Elementary.
