Searching for a project that can be done with your community that can make a difference in the lives of your neighbors? Plan a household goods drive for families in need. If your school, civic group, church or workplace would like to organize a product drive, we would love your support!
Bridging provides families and individuals transitioning out of homelessness and poverty with quality furniture and household items, free of charge, by effectively utilizing community resources. You can help make a world of difference by helping someone establish a new home and a better life. Each year Bridging benefits nearly 16,000 individuals who are given a sense of dignity and stability as they rebuild their lives.
The Demand for Donations Continues to Rise in 2011. Nearly 100 people are served each day at our Bloomington and Roseville locations. Without adequate inventory and donations on the shelves from the community we can not help families in need. To serve 115 households a week, we need 10 semi-loads of inventory donated.
