Double your impact!
Dollar for dollar, your donation to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northern NJ will be matched up to $50,000.
Over the next 100 days, we are aiming to raise $100,000 for our new programs launching in the Fall of 2018.
A BBBS of America’s Board Member has come forward to offer a matching challenge grant of up to $50,000. That means that when you donate now, a contribution of equal value comes from a secret source and effectively doubles the impact of your giving. If you give $1,000, it’s matched by another $1,000 and BBBSNNJ receives a total of $2,000. Matching will continue cumulatively up to $50,000 in donations – $5,000 from you and other donors plus $5,000 in matches equals $10,000 in funds raised for BBBSNNJ, for programming costs of BMW, Bigs in Blue and our BIG Opioid Strategic Response as well as for projects not even imagined yet.
We’ll be posting regularly to our Instagram account over the next 100 days to let y’all know how much of the challenge amount we’ve raised. You can follow our Instagram, or just check in to see the news, here: http://instagram.com/bbbsnnj. You can also create a fundraising page today or donate directly to the campaign and help us match $50,000 today, simply go to our website at http://northjerseybigs.com/challenge.
With over 62% of our Littles receiving free or reduced lunches, don’t you think that now is a great time to give if you haven’t done so yet, and a great time to give a little bit more if you can. We’d really like to raise all $50,000 needed to max out our challenge grant, and every donation helps!
