Today and throughout the month of June, The Bridge International is celebrating six years as a nonprofit organization!
It has been an incredible journey serving individuals who have experienced human trafficking throughout the RDU region and across North Carolina.
Although our launch was reshaped by the COVID-19 pandemic, we quickly learned that one of our greatest strengths was our ability to adapt and persevere. Our mission compelled us to creatively partner with agencies that were serving remotely, and we remained committed to providing safe, compassionate care to our clients during an unprecedented time.
In the years that followed, we navigated financial uncertainty as communities worked to rebuild and establish a new normal. Yet through every challenge, your support carried us forward.
Now, in 2026, we are proud to celebrate what we have accomplished together. Since our founding, we have served more than 160 clients, reached nearly 20,000 individuals through outreach efforts, and developed meaningful partnerships that have expanded the care and services available to clients of all ages and backgrounds.
It has truly been an honor to serve alongside each of you. Our Board of Directors and I are excited about what lies ahead as we continue to broaden our impact and build bridges to hope, healing, and opportunity.
Thank you for your grace, advice, encouragement, support, and trust over the past six years. We would not be where we are today without you, and we look forward to all that we will accomplish together in the years to come.
Building Bridges,
Kathy
