The Bridge Ministry, Inc.
Serving the Needs of Nashville for over 20 Years
The Bridge Ministry, Inc.
THE MISSION
The Bridge, Inc. exists to alleviate the suffering of food-insecure children, people experiencing homelessness, and the under-resourced by providing life-sustaining resources and a message of hope.
HOW THE BRIDGE STARTED
In November of 2004, The Bridge was created with the intention of helping people experiencing homelessness in Nashville by providing them with food and clothes. Candy Christmas initiated this effort by cooking large pots of jambalaya and distributing them to the homeless residing under the Jefferson Street Bridge. As the demand for assistance continued to rise, she expanded her efforts by collecting clothing and non-perishable food items, which she stored in her garage. Friends who shared her vision pitched in, filling grocery bags with food. The ministry's growth accelerated as more people learned about it and became involved.
THE BRIDGE TODAY
The Bridge Ministry is located in an 18,000-square-foot warehouse in Nashville, TN. Apart from storing food, clothing, and other resources for Tuesday evening services and other outreaches, the warehouse serves as a local resource center for other local ministries and nonprofits. Additionally, the ministry assists school children in need by providing them with food-filled backpacks every Friday afternoon. This ensures that they have enough food to last them throughout the weekend.
