Help The Bridge Replace Our Stolen Gear

Dear Community,

Last Saturday, our hearts broke when we discovered that The Bridge’s Community Headquarters had been broken into. Thousands of dollars worth of instruments and audio equipment were stolen. These are tools that young artists rely on to express themselves, process trauma, and grow through music.

What’s most upsetting is that The Bridge is meant to be a safe and supportive space. This violation goes beyond stolen equipment. It shakes the sense of security we’ve worked so hard to build for our youth.

We have filed a police report and are carefully weighing whether an insurance claim will help or hurt us in the long run. As a grassroots nonprofit, this loss hits us hard. Not only do we need to replace the stolen equipment, but we also need to strengthen our security to prevent this from happening again.

We need your support.

We've set up two ways you can help:

1. Donate to our GoFundMe (You're at the right place)

2. Purchase replacement equipment directly through our Instrument Registry: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2DHF1GUFG7HGX?ref_=wl_share

If you believe in The Bridge’s mission to empower youth through music, now is the time to stand with us. Every contribution—big or small—helps us rebuild, recover, and continue this important work.

Thank you for your generosity and for being part of The Bridge community. Together, we’ll come back stronger.

With gratitude,

Bobby Williams
