Looking for an active and meaningful group volunteer opportunity?
Bridging has a wide variety of options for groups of 10 - 25 who are looking to expose their organization to a volunteer opportunity. Many group and short term volunteers are needed each year to serve our growing population of families in need.
Groups will begin their day with a short tour of the warehouse and learn about the program services at Bridging. Duties vary according to time commitment and volunteer skill level. Call or email today and book a group service project! All group projects are custom fit based on your talents and our needs. Join us at our Bloomington or Roseville location. Note: For safety reasons, all volunteers in our warehouse must be 14 years of age or older.
Group Volunteering at Bridging: Once a date and time are set we send out the confirmation which includes directions and project information for the volunteer team.

Bridging was founded in 1987 with the vision that no child should have to sleep on the floor. We are an organization with a simple concept: we collect quality furniture and household goods that people no longer need and reuse them by distributing them to families in need...and, incidentally, prevent these items from going to the landfill. Bridging partners with over 160 different social service agencies in Minnesota to provide this service. Over 115 families per week use our facilities, each receiving between 20 and 25 items with a thrift shop value of approximately $2,000. Bridging is the largest furniture bank program in the nation. Last year, Bridging served over 14,000 people and distributed over $13 million of free furniture and household goods.
