Bremen HS Students Volunteer at Bridge Teen Center

On Saturday, October 28, students from Bremen High School, Prairie View Middle School, and Grissom Middle School participated in the Bridge Teen Center's, “Let's Drive out Bullying" campaign. Bremen High School Spanish teacher and Interact club sponsor, Mrs. Gina Arguelles works regularly with the Bridge Teen Center and this month she and several Interact Club members along with five junior high schoolers from Dist.140 volunteered their time to help sort and organize donations that came through the Bridge Thrift Store. "It was really fun because it was something new and we know we made an impact!” said student volunteer Karina Quirate. Bridge Teen Center is an innovative nonprofit community center that was designed around the interests and needs of teens in the southern suburbs. The Bridge Teen Center mission is to provide free programs during after-school and unsupervised hours where students can develop mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually in a safe environment.
