Bridges of Hope is here to assist families who are stressed. They are a phone call away when you are in crisis. Their compassion is expressed by their staff and supporters. As a donor, I know my dollars are being used effectively to meet the needs of our community. In my role as a service provider, I rely on Bridges to have the latest information on what services are available. I appreciate being asked to be an advisor because I know that Bridges is always looking for ways to improve the work they do.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I have watched a young mom go from recieving Crisis Nursery Services through Bridges of Hope, to volunteering for them, and finally growing strong enough to work for a local service agency. Bridges helped her when she was in need and now she is giving back to the community.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would encourage Bridges of Hope to continue to be true to their mission and grow, having faith that support will continue to expand. The organization is truely in the position to creatively help families stabilize.
