June 2025 . . . Lifelines

A Note from Diana Jackson, CEO
Greetings to all!
As we come to the end of spring (and the rainy season), many people supported by the agency have been enjoying community activities, employment, and skill development. First Baptist Camp Cherokee has been rescheduled to August and Fun in the Sun with the Elks Lodge members was a huge success. Miracle League softball has been exciting for many and some of the people at Life Bridges were chosen for the elite team.
Work and planning continue as we pursue the Duplex Project. We recently received notice that we will be awarded a grant from the George R. Johnson Foundation for $50,000. Also, $5,000 from our local United Way. This will be added to the Spring Fling totals. We are on the MOVE!
We are very grateful for all the generosity of so many people in our community, including parents and family members. Mark your calendar for the 2026 SPRING FLING – March 27th There are many ways to be involved.
Together we are BRIDGING the gap,
Life Bridges Partners – Thank you for believing in and partnering with us!
Together we are BRIDGING the gap!
