On Sleep Out Saturday (November 1st), hundreds of children, teens and adults will spend the night sleeping outside in tents, boxes, and cars or doubled up inside their homes without a bed to call their own, all to raise awareness about family homelessness and funds for Bridge Communities' Transitional Housing Program.
Your support has the power to change lives! With your help, Bridge Communities will transition over 100 families to self-sufficiency by working with community partners to provide mentoring, housing, and supportive services. Please give today to demonstrate your commitment to helping families facing homelessness build a bridge to a brighter future!

Hi friends!
Time again for you to join me in supporting families transitioning from homelessness to permanent, generational self-sufficiency through Bridge Communities' uniquely successful programming.
I'll do the hard part -- sleeping out in my car overnight on November 1st -- you do the easy part -- donate money in support. Any amount is welcome!
You'll be supporting me, families, and a program that works! A 30-year longitudinal study showed that 75% of Bridge graduates never fell behind in their rent or mortgage payments, let alone became homeless; 84% reported being stable to thriving in their careers. That's remarkable and good news for our neighbors in need and ultimately benefits everyone in our community.
Thank you for your support!
Warmly (for now),
Jen
Sincerely, Jen Bystry
