Power Hour – Maximize Your Gift!
We will be participating in the Lunch Break Power Hour from 12:00-1:00 pm with the chance for donors to win prizes from us.
Every 10th donation given during our Power Hour will receive a coupon for either a free 10" 1 topping pizza OR a free bread twist from your locally-owned Domino's!
Why Your Support Matters:
The Great Community Give is organized by The Community Foundation of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, which underwrites platform costs so that 100% of your tax-deductible donation (less a small processing fee) goes directly to BBBSHR.
Every dollar you give helps us ignite the potential of local youth through mentorship and meaningful connections. Your generosity ensures that more children in our community have the support, encouragement, and guidance they need to thrive.
Get Involved & Spread the Word!
