Agency Details:

Building Bridges

Building Bridges is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization formed to organize programs and events that will bring diverse groups of people together to help our communities recognize and resolve important community problems.

Our non-profit is designed to identify the gaps that exist in our communities that prevent the needs of individuals from being met. Most non-profits are organized around a specific cause. Building Bridges is a bit different. It has been created as a flexible tool that can be used to help solve any type problem in a community that is not being addressed currently. Building Bridges utilizes a process that allows them to work with already existing non-profit organizations, government agencies & officials, media, partners, sponsors and donors to create significant solutions at the community level.

Description:
Building Bridges is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization that was organized in 1996 to benefit service agencies, educational institutions and individuals in their efforts to deliver needed resources, services and programs to the diverse groups at the community level.
