Title: Help me #GiveBIG!

Hello Friends, Family, and Colleagues,

Today launches the #GiveBIG campaign, to help Big Brothers Big Sisters of Washtenaw County celebrate giving season. They have a goal of raising $5,000 over the next 7 days, and they need our help to reach it.

Many of you know that I serve on the Board of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Washtenaw County (BBBS). <WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO SHARE YOUR PERSONAL STORY> That is 
why supporting this #GiveBIG campaign matters so much to me.

With our help, I know BBBS can reach their $5,000 goal.  Any amount you can give will help BBBS continue to Defend the limitless Potential of youth in Washtenaw County.
