Greetings,

Giving Tuesday is upon us and so we wanted to take a moment to THANK YOU for your amazing support of neighborhood bridges. 2023 continues to be a record setting year of impact, 20% growth in new neighborhood bridges communities, and in historic giving.

So what does your giving through neighborhood bridges look like? This year it breaks down this way...

3,500 students/family members are receiving furniture donations

(beds, sofas, kitchen tables, washers & dryers, furniture, bikes, basic household items)

42,000 students are getting the personal care items they desperately need

(soap, shampoo, deodorant, feminine hygiene products,  toothpaste, and toothbrushes)
