Bridges of Hope Night in December

The Next Bridges of Hope Night is Tuesday, December 11th from 6:30-8:00pm. For more information, send us an e-mail.

At our last Bridges night, a woman on a fixed-income shared her struggle to pay for her mobile home. She was drowning in debt. After meeting with our foreclosure counseler Lynne, an arrangement was completed making it possible for the woman to move into an apartment. This change is saving her around $500 per month, about one-half of her fixed income!


Someone There To Help


"I lost my job nine months ago. I did receive unemployment but was barely able to pay for the basic necessities. I would rotate which bills I paid each month. (I paid the minimum to keep my electicity from being cut off.) I finally found a job in October, but by that time my bill had accumulated and was due for shut-off before I could get a full paycheck. Your help is one less worry for me, and the two ladies I spoke with were very nice and didn't make me feel like I was "humbling myself." Keep doing what you're doing - GOD BLESS YOU ALL!"
