GIVE THE GIFT OF HOPE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON To feel almost invisible to passers by and cut off from the rest of the world? For many of us, this experience is almost impossible to grasp. Perhaps not impossible to grasp is the emotion of hope. What if you could be a part of the caring community that provides not only hope, but has the potential to provide lifelong results in the lives of young adults who have nowhere else to turn? “Life is better since coming to Bridge. Not perfect, but better.”
Tizaya wants to own a shipping business and was hopeful about a job interview later in the afternoon this picture was taken. He wasn’t nervous because of all the volunteering he’s done and the way Bridge has prepared him. Tizaya is grateful for the bus pass provided by Bridge, which is how he will get to his interview. Without this pass, Tizaya would not be able to explore job opportunities or housing outside of the city, severely limiting his choices for gainful employment. Did you know that Bridge Over Troubled Waters is the only service provider in Boston providing the full continuum of services from educational, career, counseling, health, and housing services for youth between the ages of 14-24? Did you know that Bridge serves close to 2500 youth each year? Did you know that Bridge can not do this remarkable work without the help of generous people like you? Thanks to Bridge’s direct intervention, education, prevention and advocacy, young adults like Tizaya have hope of becoming productive adults. Won’t you help? Just click the Donate button above to help Tizaya and others like him continue to realize their dream of self-sufficiency. To learn more about Bridge and how you can help impact the lives of Boston’s most vulnerable youth, please contact Director of Development Karin Wilcox Cassel at kcassel@bridgeotw.org. We thank you, Tizaya thanks you.
