Help Us Make A Difference
Every donation shares the Good News!
“Charity is a virtue which, when our affections are perfectly ordered, unites us to God. For by it we love him.” Saint Augustine of Hippo
“You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.” Amy Carmichael
This is God’s work, so we do not charge for the Bridges program, which is every day after school, 180 days a year. Instead of charging for Bridges, we trust in God for all our needs. Philippians 4:19 Your donation keeps us on the frontlines sharing God’s good news with kids.
About Us
The Bridges For Youth Centers are a non-denominational ministry to kids that was founded in 1994 in Springfield, Missouri. We operate all 6 Bridges centers in Springfield, Marshfield and Strafford through faith in God. We share God’s good news and evangelize and disciple kids, because we know the truth and that the truth will set you free and bring the hope of salvation. We are funded through donations, love indiscriminately and serve kids 6 to 17, who are registered and abide by required youth center rules and guidelines. Disrespect for adults or other kids is not tolerated. Everyone makes mistakes and has bad days and we practice forgiveness and always go the extra mile to restore relationships , so kids can continue to attend and grow.
