Our Model
I wish people understood that Bridge of Hope is the best program out there. And it’s not really a program – it’s a family. Bridge of Hope is giving families a family, a village. So they aren’t alone.

"The name 'Bridge of Hope' describes exactly what they do for homeless single Moms. I believe ‘hope’ is the cry of every single Mom as they cross the bridge into the unknown and scary journey of single parenting. When there is nothing left to live for, ‘hope’ is a beautiful gift given by the staff and [Neighboring Volunteers] at Bridge of Hope."

Anne Beiler, Founder, Auntie Anne's, Inc.

Organizations like Bridge of Hope become the only means that many homeless people have to achieve dignity and faith. Bridge of Hope makes homeless strangers into friends in the name of Christ.

Tony Campolo, Author and Speaker

Bridge of Hope, and our friendship with Donna, changed my husband and I. It gave us a way to live out our faith. We began to see things in a new way. We went on to do foster care and so our Bridge of Hope experience even shaped our family today.
