About Us

The Federated Challenge has raised more than $20 million in support of children facing adversity and Minnesota’s youth mentoring programs. It is one of the state’s largest and most efficient charities—with nearly 100 percent of the funds raised going to help deserving young people have a better chance in life through Big Brothers Big Sisters mentorship program.

Together we continue to change lives. Big Brothers Big Sisters is our nation’s oldest and largest youth mentoring organization, providing one-to-one mentoring relationships between children and caring adults.

In 2013, Jeff and Marty Fetters took over the charge with contagious energy and enthusiasm towards helping our state’s youth shape their lives into a better future.
