    On March 15, 2010, a tragic event took the life of a great man. James A. Kerstetter was not just a son, husband, father, friend, and police officer; he was a beacon of light in our community. In July of that same year, an event was created to honor and remember Jim's legacy. Now, sixteen years later, the Kerstetter 5K has evolved into more than just a memorial; it has become a symbol of unity, remembrance, and community support, embraced by countless individuals and organizations.

    When you support Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lorain County, you’re not just participating in an event – you’re joining a movement! Together, we are empowering the next generation of leaders, innovators, and changemakers. Research shows that under-resourced children and youth who have volunteer mentors and support services are far more likely to attend school regularly, thrive academically, exhibit healthy behaviors, build nurturing relationships, exude high self-esteem, and graduate from high school with a plan for the future.

    Your support and the support of others help our children achieve great things! Through one-on-one mentoring relationships with caring adults, we empower children ages 6 – 19 to dream big, build resilience, and unlock their full potential. Moreover, our support services strengthen our mentoring with social and emotional learning, academic enrichment and tutoring, career and college readiness programming, summer camps, a Learning Resource Center, and family engagement activities.
