The Light One Match Society is a leadership giving society that encompasses a distinguished group of donors dedicated to supporting mentoring friendships. Light One Match Donors believe that just one person in a child’s corner can help ignite their inherent potential. Society donors make gifts annually between $2,000-$10,000 to assist BBBSCI in creating new mentoring relationships each fiscal year. To support just one match for an entire year costs BBBSCI $2,000 and with a growing wait list of kids that have asked for a mentor, generous donors at this level can help us reach more kids in our community. Learn more at BeBigForKids.org/light-one-match-society/.

Each of our partnerships work in conjunction to accomplish BBBSCI’s ultimate vision – that all children achieve success in life. We’re proud to partner with companies and organizations across the community to defend, ignite, and empower the potential of more children in Central Indiana. If your company is interested in partnering with BBBSCI to make a long-term impact on kids in our community, please contact Laura Haltom, Assistant Director of Development & Corporate Partnerships, at lhaltom@bbbsci.org or 317-472-3732.
