Neighborhood Bridges Program Underway In Trussville

TRUSSVILLE, AL — Trussville City Schools has launched the Neighborhood Bridges program this month. This program is an "Opportunity for Kindness" and it matches student/family needs in the Trussville school system with donors.

This program functions very much like an Angel Tree, and is all done anonymously. When a need is listed, everyone who has signed up for the program will receive an email with the list of needs. Then donors can select to buy any request on the list that they are able to fulfill. Each item can only be selected once. Only new items are accepted.

Those who have a need are asked to let the school counselor know in each school where their children attend. The school counselor collects needs for their school and lists them on the Neighborhood Bridges site.

Neighborhood Bridges is open to anyone in the community who is looking for an "Opportunity for Kindness." At this time, the system are unable to accept monetary donations but it hopes to provide that option soon.
