RHS Family Needs Assistance with Overdue Power Bill


RHS student and his father need help with paying their overdue $697.77 power bill.  The student and his father both have chronic medical conditions and have to go to the doctor regularly making it difficult for dad to work consistently.  The student and his single father live alone and have no support other than the father's income.  They rarely asks for help, but the father has gotten behind on his power bill and the power has been disconnected.  Due to their chronic medical needs, it is devastating for them to not have electricity during the cold weather.  Donations in any amount toward this are appreciated.  Neighborhood Bridges will make direct payment to the utility company.  

RHS Senior Fees


RHS has a senior needing help to pay for his senior fees. He's a hard working student who rarely asks for help. He lives with a single mom who is caring for him and his 3 siblings. She cannot afford to pay this on top of her other bills. He owes $125. If you are able to help, please donate through Neighborhood Bridges and a payment will be made to the school. 

SFMS student in need of glasses


We have a student who is currently struggling to focus in class after breaking his glasses. His mother is experiencing some significant financial hardships and simply isn't able to cover the cost of a replacement right now.  We want to get him back to seeing clearly and feeling confident in the classroom as soon as possible. If you would like to donate toward this need, please click I Can Help to donate.  Any amount would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for showing kindness to this young boy!
