Second Bridge

When Department of Children and Family Services determines that a child needs to be placed into a foster home, they work with organizations to connect foster families with the children. These agencies are the FIRST BRIDGE to help. However, additional help is needed.

These families need a bridge to the community-at-large to help them meet the needs of the kids in their care. A state-issued stipend is not enough.

These kids need and are worthy of more.

That need can be clothes, hygiene supplies, toys, or other basic necessities to help these children thrive.

And that’s where we come in… we are the SECOND BRIDGE. We bridge the gap between the community and foster families.

The Second Bridge is a not-for-profit organization established to achieve the Mission – to provide support from the community to foster families so the children in their care can thrive. We will do this through direct support by providing necessary items such as Placement Bags, Clothing, and Supplies foster families need.
