Big Brother Big Sisters Greater Dallas is trying to help set Irving High School students up for success, with the help of volunteer mentors.
"So these kids have already raised their hand saying 'I want to go on. I want to do more after high school. I want to further my education,'" Big Brothers Big Sisters Greater Dallas President Jenny Harper said.
Big Brothers Big Sisters needs about 100 mentors in the next 30 days for its Mentor 2.0 Program at Irving High School because, for the first time, freshmen will be given a mentor. That has doubled the need for volunteers this year. "Most of them are first-generation graduates into college," Harper said."So they need additional support. They don't know what they don't know."Download NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
