Nomination Form

  • Nominating a teen (ages 13-19) will provide them with the opportunity to access all of our programs and support.

    Once nominated, we interview the students to see if they are a good fit for our program (low-income & high-achieving).

    At A Bridge for Kids, we help our students break through the glass ceiling by providing them with various opportunities and experiences such as college campus tours, financial alleviation, college essay writing, SAT/ACT preparatory classes, tutoring, internships, and much more!

“The biggest impact this sponsorship had on me was not the great amount of money that I received, but it was the hope. I was about to give up because I did not believe that someone like me could go far. A Bridge for Kids was my hope, my light in a dark tunnel.”
