Financial Overview<br />

Bridges does not seek or receive federal<br />

or state funding. In the <strong>2014</strong>-<strong>2015</strong> fiscal<br />

year, our income was received from one<br />

annual appeal, the Brown Bag Bash<br />

(a fundraising event), foundation grants,<br />

individual donors, matching gifts, and<br />

interest income.<br />

Donations: Bridges received and distributed donations<br />

of more than 63,000 brown bag meals including 13,000<br />

sustainable lunches, 2,500 seasonal items including coats,<br />

boots, pajamas and toys for sheltered children. Literally<br />

tons of donated clothing were also distributed. Our donors<br />

include groups from houses of worship, clubs, schools,<br />

corporations, and individuals. Through careful inventory of<br />

our distribution, we estimate the value of these donations to<br />

be $529,808.<br />

Overhead: Administration and fundraising are 11.8% of our<br />

overall expenses.<br />
