About this organization
Mission
Bridging empowers people to thrive in their homes by providing quality furniture and household goods for those pursuing housing stability.
About
Bridging provides families and individuals transitioning out of homelessness and poverty with a gift of quality furniture and household goods to stabilize and improve lives while effectively using community resources. Bridging serves more than 4,000 clients per year; half of the people served are children. Through its two warehouse locations in the Twin Cities, Bridging serves clients primarily in the 7-county metro area with a dedicated team of 33 staff members and the full-time equivalency of 7 staff members from just under 6,000 volunteers. Through the power of recycling, Bridging is able to keep millions of pounds of items out of the waste stream each year by giving these items away to clients or passing them along to other nonprofits and organizations that can use them.
