BridgeBuilders

We restore relationships under the banner of Christ by engaging, equipping, and empowering individuals, families, and communities.

This Saturday, over 300 students received backpacks and school supplies for the next year at our I Got Your Back event. Everyone in attendance had fun, food- and several won amazing raffle prizes!

South Dallas students have such great potential!

Until next year!

These same volunteers will be building a new storage shed for this resident and moving her belongings into the new safe space. Thank you all for all of your work!

A special thank you to our Adopt-A-Block volunteers from Prestonwood and Dallas Chinese Bible Church! We walked the neighborhood sharing the love of Christ with the community, stained a fence and porch, and also cleared out a storage shed for a resident.

Only 18% of black students scored proficient or above in reading on national tests in 2019. We launched the Lit Lab in our Student Services programming to see this statistic change in our community.

We had an awesome time at the Bonton Girls Run 5k race last Saturday! The girls were cheered on by family and friends as they persevered and finished strong as they reached the finish line!

[BridgeBuilders @HISBB]

We look forward to partnering with them more in the future as many of the teachers and administrators will be a part of the new elementary school, H.S. Thompson, in Bonton next year!

@DBUPatriots students learned all about #Bonton and the work #BridgeBuilders does in the neighborhood. They spent time writing notes of encouragement to our Senior neighbors on the DHA property.
