The Bridge
WE EMPOWER TOPEKA KIDS TO BE SERVANT LEADERS
The Bridge is a Christian mentoring program. Our mission is to empower Topeka children to become servant leaders through long-term mentoring relationships. Our vision is to connect kids with mentors during elementary school and to follow them through high school graduation.
Our two main programs are Life Buddies & Lunch Buddies.
One-on-One Mentoring
Life Buddies
Start earlier. Go deeper. Stay longer.
Life Buddies matches kids facing the most significant obstacles with a paid, professional mentor, beginning in kindergarten and continuing through high school graduation.
Lunch Buddies
Lunch Buddies is simple but powerful.
One safe, caring adult commits to showing up for a 30 minute lunch with one student for one school year. They eat, play a game, read a book, or just hang out and talk. Mentors make a difference in the life of a child who could use a friend!
