MIAMI CENTRAL CAMPUS BEAUTIFICATION
Have you seen the front yard and reception revamp that the Eagle Scouts and Gratitude Training helped create? Their beautification projects were wonderful opportunities for DIY creativity! The results? A colorful and brand new outdoor space along with bright walls, friendly murals and warm light greeting you when you enter our Miami Central Campus.
AIR FORCE AND NATIONAL GUARD VISIT HOMESTEAD
Youth at our Homestead campus got a special visit from members of the US Air Force and National Guard. The kids loved sharing stories with these every day heroes and asked questions about what it takes to follow in their footsteps.
CELEBRATING THE HOLIDAYS WITH S.W.A.G
Stocking Stuffers with S.W.A.G. Thank you to this amazing group of mentors for making the holidays bright for our youth!  Our kids and teens spent an afternoon decorating Christmas stockings to hang around the Miami Central Campus.
BRIDGE KIDS GIVE BACK THIS THANKSGIVING
Grateful for  The Children's Trust  and their Youth Advisory Committee. Together we helped prepare over 1,000 Thanksgiving  food bags for local families! We teach our kids everyday that giving back and staying thankful for daily blessings is key. These kids go through so much and it's incredible to see them get to a place where they can help others.
BEATS & THE BRIDGE
Students county-wide in Miami-Dade now have the opportunity to produce and record music in their very own, state-of-the-art recording studio at Miami Arts Studio 6-12 at Zelda Glazer, an arts magnet school. Thank you, Miami Arts Studio for letting our kids record in your music studio. The youth that walk through our doors are so creative, we love how they can express themselves through music and poetry!
THANK YOU TO OUR AMBASSADORS!
