GREENVILLE — Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby & Darke County recently received a donation from the Wayne Healthcare Foundation to help with mentoring needs of area youth.

“Wayne Healthcare Foundation has been a wonderful support to Big Brothers Big Sisters the past two years. We are very grateful for their help with our after school programs. This donation will be used towards supplies at Ansonia, Versailles and Greenville after school programs,” said Executive Director Jennifer Bruns.
