OKay,
So here's the deal. Big Brothers is going through some real transitional issues at the moment. The current director is leaving on Friday. I just called and talked with her to see what is up with the B&B Bucks this year.
They have worked out the details with B&B but have nobody to orchestrate it after she is gone. Wow, talk about some crazy timing on my part. Guess who got elected? At this time, I will be handling the B&B bucks for Big Brothers.
You can send your checks to me, made out to Big Brother Big Sisters of Ford County, and I will send you the B&B Bucks in the mail.
or:
You can paypal the money to
timtrent@hotmail.com reference B&B Bucks and your mailing address. I will mail them out.
I will not have the bucks until this weekend. I will send them out as soon as they are in my hand.
To those that know not what these are about...
B&B Bucks are like gift certificates. You can use them like cash at the concession's, or for admission at any B&B theater. Put "donation-BBBucks" on the memo and take it as a tax right-off.
Why are they better than cash? Well, for someone who goes to the movies, this is a way you can convert the cash into a donation for Big Brothers, as a portion of these sold thru Big Brothers goes to help those in our community by matching them with mentors. Plus, as Bubba said, these are great stocking stuffers.
Know of a family that needs to spend some time together? Well, this will help them to have an excuse to get out and enjoy life, and at the same time helps a worth-wile charity.
