Allie Riiska of Laguna Niguel, a senior at Dana Hills High School, organized a successful recruiting event for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County at her high school on February 24. Allie is co-president of Club Rush, which recruits new volunteers on campus. Forty students expressed an interest in volunteering to serve as a mentor at one of three south Orange County sites: Kinoshita Elementary School in San Juan Capistrano, RH Dana Elementary School in Dana Point and the Capistrano Valley Boys & Girls Club in San Juan Capistrano. Allie has served as a Big Sister since 2008; she is currently matched to 4th grader Erika at Kinoshita Elementary. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County matches mentors to children in need.
