We're overwhelmed once again by the generosity of the B2P family. Thank you to each of you who gave in support of the year-end campaign. We're pulling together a final count, but we're excited to put all that support to work in providing safe access to thousands of the people who need it most. Stay tuned.
Imagine.
Imagine living in the walking world, and worrying about sending your children to school on their own.
Imagine spending nearly four hours a day just walking...walking to retrieve water, walking to the market, walking to the doctor.
Imagine living in constant fear that you'll go into labor, or fall ill, and won't be able to make the hour walk to the hospital. Or, even worse, the river will be flooded and you'll have to turn back for home.
This world is a reality for women in the rural, isolated communities where Bridges to Prosperity works. These women have a "double work day" - they participate in economic activity and take care of domestic chores, children, and elderly relatives.
A footbridge changes the ending of the story for these women. It opens the door for a shortened commute, year-round access, and safe passage. A footbridge means more time to work or attend school, engage in civic activities, commune with other women, or spend time with their families. And that kind of opportunity means everything for these women, and for their communities.
Your gift of just $100 can provide safe access for 50 women. Help us rewrite the story for thousands more women around the world this year, and give bridges today.
