Making a difference in a kid's life often involves simply being in a place where you are available to help. Bridges for Youth centersare located at the heart of neighborhoods with hundreds of youth within walking distance and are open daily throughout the school year. Our success at Bridges has been in a large part because of the nurturing relationships we develop with kids. Out of these ongoing relationships we strive to forgive, reconcile differences, encourages through life's discouragements and slowly build self-esteem.
It's hard to wear a smile when you're hungry, so Bridges for Youth provides daily snacks and drinks for kids. On Friday nights at Bridges we provide dinner for all kids in attendance. Bridges involves the local community and churches by giving them the opportunity to partner with us in providing food on one or more Friday nights a month.
