We have a grandmother in our school community who has recently taken in her grandchild after he was removed from his home due to abuse. She is now caring for three children while living in an RV and has reached out for assistance with food. While she is in the process of applying for SNAP benefits, she needs support to provide meals for the children until her application is finalized.
Please consider making a designated donation to neighborhood bridges to be used to purchase a Walmart Charitable Gift Card for this family to use for groceries. Any amount would be greatly appreciated and will go directly toward ensuring these children have access to food.
