Future - The Bridge Home

BE THE KEY
TO A FUTURE

The Bridge home is the only organization in the Two Rivers Region working with the general public to shelter and directly support individuals and families experiencing housing insecurity and transition them to stable housing.

The number of people seeking our services has tripled in the past year. We don’t have enough physical shelter space — beds, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry — to serve more, especially women and families.

There is a housing waiting list of more than 650 people, which includes families. These struggling families need affordable housing.

So, the need is great and growing. We have launched the Be the Key to a Future campaign to fund a new campus to accommodate and serve more clients safely and confidentially.

OPEN THE DOOR
TO HOPE AND A HOME

We have launched the Be the Key to a Future campaign to fund a new campus to accommodate and serve more clients safely and confidentially.

The buildings will provide short-term shelter space for men, women and families to sleep, eat, stay clean and safe and receive services to help return them to independence. A second, attached building will offer community space and sufficient space for additional services for clients from partners in the community. A third building will offer 18 apartment units for families in need of housing.

Your gift to this campaign will help change lives for the better. For certain amounts, you can choose to name the entire facility, an entire floor, an area or a room.
