A fundraiser leaving Big Brothers-Big Sisters with $3500 to help pay for a campaign aimed at recruiting more Big Brothers.
Executive Director Laurie Collins says 130 boys are waiting to be matched.
She says guys don't have to worry about not connecting with their little brother, because volunteers are paired with kids based on personality.
Collins says men may be reluctant to volunteer because they're unsure of what's involved, but there is a training program that the big brother, the child, and child's parents take part in.
Collins says there are about 30 girls waiting for a Big Sister right now, but women seem to step into that 1-to-1 nurturing role a little easier.
