VOLUNTEER PRICE BREAKS
Being a Big shouldn't be expensive, so to help you along the way, we’ve collected some resources for you and your Little!
PRICE BREAKS
Price Breaks is one way local businesses partners with Big Brothers Big Sisters to offer two-for-one discounts or special rates for our Matches as a way to foster mentoring relationships with Bigs and Littles. To redeem an offer, you must present your Volunteer ID Card at any participating location during their operating hours.

LAST-MINUTE TICKET OFFERS
As another fun and free activity exclusively for Matches, we frequently have Last Minute Ticket Offers to various programs in the area. If you are a Big and are not currently receiving these emails, please contact your Match Support Team who will get you on the email list.
MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Businesses can help foster our mentoring relationships by participating in Price Breaks, which offers Bigs and Littles affordable opportunities to spend time together.
If your business is interested in learning more about our discount program or offer Last-Minute Ticket Offer opportunities, please contact Bailey Roe at (260) 209-4722 or Bailey.Roe@bbbsnei.org.
