A personal message from Amy Van Polen & Lauren Rouse

Thank you for supporting Lauren, Aidan and I as we spend one night outside - sleeping in our car - in order to try to experience just a bit of what it may be like to not have a home. All the monies raised will help Bridge Communities help homeless families get back on their feet. The program is not a quick fix - but a real long-term solution to help homeless families.

Your support will be pooled with more than a 1,000 other donors to help Bridge serve more than 100 families this year. Thanks for all you give to support us in our experience. Please join us in saying thank you for the fact that we are able to go back to our home on Sunday morning.

Sincerely,
Amy Van Polen & Lauren Rouse
