Betterment – means trying to relieve a persistent need by standing beside a person. It is necessary to have relationships built on mutual respect with those we are serving. We can work more effectively together once we can begin building trust.
Betterment can be described by this familiar saying – “teach a man to fish, and he eats tomorrow.” Betterment is relationship dependent, and building relationships take time.
Bridges of Hope
Once a month, Bridges of Hope Night opens its doors. It's like a "kitchen table," where people gather 'round to discuss, well, everything! Professionals share resources, volunteers share food and connections, and participants begin to share their life experience. The goal is for people to find Hope by investigating new resources and solutions for their situation.
What would you pay to get some wisdom? At Bridges, the only cost is an hour of your time and the willingness to learn and share. This is a night for you! See you there.
