Who We Are
We are a non-profit organization seeking to support children with disabilities by advocating, uplifting, and recognizing the disabled community. Through “The Bridge,” we want to inspire people to broaden their worldview and appreciate the diversity and uniqueness of all people.
What We Do
We provide picture communication boards tailored to the individual’s specific needs without any cost. Our vision also includes raising funds to donate to organizations or families of children with disabilities, as well as offering social, emotional support for disabled children through a buddy program. This program will match peers/mentors to the children and will offer a great opportunity for a genuine, authentic connection for both mentor and mentee.
How It Works
- Picture Communication: parents or therapists/educators will request customized pictures to help nonverbal children communicate for free.
- Visual support system:we all learn and communicate better through visual support such as emojis in our daily life. Parents or therapists/educators will request an individualized visual support system, such as a “picture schedule,” “feeling emoji board,” or a “first, then board” through our website. We will mail it out to the parents, organization, or therapist.
- Buddy program: children with disabilities will be uplifted through a buddy program. We will support social-emotional development for disabled children in the buddy program.
- Fund Raising: parents or organizations for children with disabilities will be supported via donations through fundraising.
- Advocate:high school students will support children with disabilities and enjoy a genuine friendship through mentoring opportunities.
