Neighborhood Bridges Supports Our Community
Kings Neighborhood Bridges is a non-profit organization that supports those in need in our community.
How does Neighborhood Bridges work?
School district counselors, the resource coordinator, and appointed representatives of Joshua’s Place and Beech Acres (referred to as “advocates”) will post needs on behalf of students and families to the website and social media pages.
Neighborhood Bridges-Kings works with key stakeholders in the community to engage all resources to help drive direct support and care to our students and neighbors in need. When someone can fill a need, they can simply click on the “I can help” button where the need is posted. They will then receive an email back with further instructions on dropping off the item(s) in the Neighborhood Bridges clear bin at one of our two drop-off locations: Kings Point Church or the Countryside YMCA Landen.
A receipt is given at the drop-off location by request. For items larger than what can be carried (i.e. beds, furniture, etc.), an Area Director will contact the donor to make arrangements. From there, one of our Area Directors will pick up the items and deliver them to the family in need. Confidentiality is never compromised.
There are some current needs such as families who need back-to-school clothing and supplies. Community members are encouraged to subscribe to Neighborhood Bridges-Kings to learn how you can help.
