ABOUT US
Since 2012, A Bridge for Kids has offered sponsorships to bright and driven low-income teens in San Diego County. We dedicate our time, resources, and money to getting our students into the school of their dreams. All of our students are more than qualified but lack the financial resources required to unlock their full potential. At A Bridge for Kids, we help our students break through the glass ceiling by providing them with a vast variety of opportunities and experiences such as college campus tours, financial alleviation, college essay writing, SAT/ACT preparatory classes, tutoring, internships, and much more!
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to build a bridge between teenagers who aspire to attend college and are in need of educational & financial assistance and those who can provide these resources. In doing so, we strive to make lasting improvements in the lives of young people and the society in which they live.
OUR VISION
To be a forward thinking, financially solid, and self-sustaining organization that drastically impacts the lives of teenagers. We are constantly putting together new programs in order to adapt to the changing needs of our students, allowing each and every young teen to pursue their dreams and aspirations, regardless of their economic situation. We are committed to helping young people in need succeed!
THE STUDENT
We find intelligent, committed, and driven teens in San Diego County who aspire to advance their lives, but are restrained from their full potential by a lack of financial resources.
THE SPONSOR
We actively identify people who would like to impact the lives of teenagers in need. We then bring the sponsor and student together, ensuring all resources are being allocated effectively, and oversee each relationship to a successful conclusion.
THE RESULTS
We are proud to say that we have a 100% success rate of our students getting into the college of their dreams. After the sponsorship ends, we individually review each case and strive to make the next one even better.
