Leading Results

Dear Friends:

At the heart of BRIDGE’s core values is commitment to mission. We persevere in the face of challenges, seek resources to ensure the best outcomes and work toward our goals with a sense of purpose and urgency. Why is this so important?

Today in America and especially on the West Coast, the need for ordable housing is greater than ever. The shorordable homes ects everyone and everything: individuals, businesses and employers, neighborhoods and cities, the economy, quality of life.

Parents work multiple jobs, yet rents are still out of reach. Companies can’t expand their workforce, because employees cnd ordable or within commuting distance. Seniors and people with disabilities struggle to stay in their homes. And the social al costs of homelessness are alarmingly on the rise.

BRIDGE is proud to deliver solutions based on 35 years of experience in producing and owning wordable homes. We’ve learned that thoughtful, holistic real estate development—beyond putting roofs over heads—can reap even greater benefits for people and communities. By integrating housing opportunities with access to education, economic vitality and wellness, we strive to create and preserve places where everyone can thrive.

Dayana, for example, is a single mom who was homeless for four years before she and her children moved into BRIDGE’s One Church Street Apartments. Despite a lifelong learning disability, Dayana has worked hard to advance her education and job goals. She earned a Stein Scholarship through BRIDGE, which helped her complete her training as a surgical technician. “The scholarship proved that you believe in me,” said Dayana, whose children have been inspired by their mother’s perseverance.

At BRIDGE, we are working hard to bring solutions and results to the table: building homes, strengthening neighborhoods and creating opportunities for families such as Dayana’s.

Thank you, from all of us at BRIDGE, for your partnership and commitment.
