The jcpenney store in The Dalles will ask customers to round up purchases to the nearest dollar and donate the difference to their local Big Brothers Big Sisters during June. According to Program Manager Kristin Reese, “Rounding up to the next dollar only adds a few cents to a purchase, but it adds up to a big impact in the life of a child.”
Wasco County Mentor of the Year, Mike Kilkenny, stated, “I think the Big Brothers Big Sisters program is great. These kids really have the deck stacked up against them. Having a Big Brother makes a difference.”
