Bridges to Community is a nonprofit service learning and community development organization that brings people from different socio-economic and cultural backgrounds together to work, learn and reflect. Through the process of working in local communities, Bridges promotes community and personal transformation, cross-cultural partnerships, sustainable community development, and a commitment to be agents of change in our communities, both locally and globally.
