Pennsylvanians rappel to raise money for Big Brothers Big Sisters [Video]

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Individuals and organizations around Dauphin County are taking to new heights and stepping Over the Edge while raising money for the mentorship program Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Capital Region. 

On Friday, nearly 70 people will descend down the side of the Market Square Plaza building in Harrisburg, which stands at 246 feet. The proceeds from the event will go towards supporting mentors and their mentees throughout their time with the program.

“Our staff are there to provide support throughout the entire length of the journey, whether that’s one year, five years or ten years,” said Krystin Shultz, marketing and communications manager for Big Brothers Big Sisters.

The program assists kids in the community ranging from elementary school to high school and beyond with reaching new heights by offering support, guidance and a companion to look up to.
