HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Together we can ensure that their futures shine bright

Our goal is to change the odds for these young adults by offering support as they transition from foster care to adulthood.

Hear From Our Donor Community

“Margaret, Derek, and I have had the opportunity to mentor some incredibly resilient young adults.  Listening to their stories, sharing skills and supporting the youth through financial literacy has been both humbling and inspiring.  Through supportive housing, life skills education, and mentoring, Bridge to Brighter gives youth the tools to build independence and long‑term success. We’ve seen firsthand how their holistic approach changes lives, both of youth and those who volunteer and mentor.”

Maria Baumer

“After becoming an empty nester I was looking for a volunteer role where I could directly impact youth. By helping coordinate home cooked meals, offering vocational advice and providing emotional support, Bridge to Brighter has given way more to me than I could ever give to them. All of these resilient young men are deserving of bright futures; they just need support to navigate the adult world.”

Katie Ratajczyk.

“As parents of five children, we deeply value the importance of a stable environment and meaningful opportunities for young people to thrive. We’re especially moved by the challenges faced by youth aging out of the foster care system—many of whom lack the support and guidance they deserve. Bridge to Brighter fills this critical gap with mentorship, housing, and hope. The impact they have on these young lives inspires us, and we’re proud to support their mission.”

"I’m involved with Bridge to Brighter because I believe every young person deserves the support and opportunity to thrive—especially those who’ve grown up without the safety net many of us take for granted. As a proud Milwaukeean, I’m committed to helping build a stronger community, and B2B is doing that by empowering underserved young adults with the resources, mentorship, and guidance they need to create independent, fulfilling lives."
