Big shoutout to the Ulta Beauty Charitable Foundat Big shoutout to the Ulta Beauty Charitable Foundation! BBBS-ETN received over $9,600 thanks to the generosity of UBCF and everyone who contributed to their campaign. These funds allow us to not only make new matches, but also continue supporting the matches and families currently enrolled in our programs.
It takes $1,250 to support one match for an entire year and this partnership with UBCF allows us to support 8 matches. That’s 8 children who will have a mentor in their corner, cheering them on, helping them grow, and defending their potential
During this campaign we had several BBBS-ETN Staff members go to local Ulta stores and they talked to UBC Employees and put flyers up in the store

Thank you, UBCF, for investing in the power of mentorship and helping us change lives across East Tennessee. 💚
