The Bridges of Light Foundation was founded in 2004 to help children in need, specifically children confined to foster care facilities between the ages of 6-18. We provide these children with mentors to help them with everyday issues that arise in a child's life. These children have been abused, abandoned or neglected so they do not have a stable family unless they are adopted. A very small percentage of children are adopted once they move into their teen years. We want to teach these children to stay in school, get a degree and become productive in our community.
