Glasses for Mathis Elementary Student


A Mathis student with special needs and a severe vision problem lost her glasses over the summer. For $175 Baldwin Optical will provide 2 pairs of glasses so she can leave one at school and have one at home. The teachers have been enlarging all of the student's work as much as they can and the student still has to hold her work up to her face to be able to see it at all. These glasses will enable her to see and to learn. Donations to neighborhood bridges will be used to make payment directly to the optical shop to cover the purchase. Thanks for helping this child function better in school! 

Mattress and Bedding Needed for Fairhope High School Student


We have a female student in need of a twin size mattress and bedding for her new room. The family has been homeless but recently secured a space of their own. The student would love wonder woman bedding, but anything will be greatly appreciated. 
Donations can be sent to the front office or dropped off at the front office to the attention of the social worker. The address is 1 Pirate Drive, Fairhope, AL 36532.

Basketball Fee Support for BCHS Student


Imagine being a young person who has found belonging, discipline, encouragement, and purpose through basketball, only to discover that a fee may keep you from taking the court. 

We have a young man at Baldwin County High School whose family who does their best to make basic ends meet but, more often than not, those ends are not meeting.  A basketball fee of $275 simply isn’t something the family can absorb.  We would like this student to have an opportunity that could positively shape his future.  

Please CLICK HERE to make a donation in any amount and earmark your donation “Basketball Fees”.  Neighborhood bridges will make a direct payment to the school.  Thank you for stepping in before a financial hardship becomes a closed door.
