What an amazing Give-Together community event!

On December 12, we saw incredible support by hundreds of local community members at the Minnesota State Fair Community Gives Together kitchen utensils event.

In four short hours, we received 294 brand-new, jumbo kitchen packs in our first-ever drive thru donation event– a partnership with the Minnesota State Fair Community Gives team. In addition to the full packs, the community gave us 800 kitchen essential pieces. Those kits will be passed on to families in need. We can’t wait to pass on these wonderful gifts to the clients!

Imagine not having the basic kitchen essentials to cook a meal for you and your family?

Utensils like a mixing spoon and can opener are important in your kitchen set up– they give people the ability to stay healthy and nourished.

Each year, thousands of people come to Bridging because they have hope… hope for a fresh start… hope for a place where they can find comfort and stability… hope to be treated with dignity… hope for a place to call HOME where they can THRIVE!

“I got myself and my kids off the floor. We are able to cook with the right utensils, we get to sit in the living room and eat at a dinner table… We are forever grateful for this experience.” – Shauntia W.
