Enriching Lives – Fostering Independence
Many people buy online and you might be one of them. A new way to give to our organization without you having to pay a penny is when you shop online. Amazon generously gives 0.5% of the purchase to us, if you let them know that you want to give to Building a Bridge (yes, they still use our old name).
Thanks in advance to all of you and happy shopping!
Our 3rd Annual Midsummer Nights Dream Party was a great success, and we thank all our guests for joining us on that lovely day and for all the generous contributions.
Perfect weather, delicious food, great music with ACME Swing Mnfg. Co., and of course our favorite motivational speaker and comedian Brett Leake ensured a fun and joyful evening.
The most touching moment of the evening was the unveiling of the memorial plaque in honor of Fred Drake. Fred was a wonderful and committed member of our Board, and instrumental in our fundraising efforts, i.e. grant writing and creating new connections for us in the community. He sadly passed away 2 years ago and has remained since then in our hearts and minds. One of Fred’s passions was gardening, and that inspired us to create The Drake Friendship Garden at the Belmont home. While we opened the garden at our Midsummer Night’s Dream event, his wife Diana unveiled the plaque that leaves him forever alive.
Many people contributed to the photos we have from that night, mainly our friend Mary Miller. Please click here to see pics of the party and the unveiling, and video of the night!
What an amazing day! We are so lucky and grateful to live in this wonderful Charlottesville community. People are generous and thoughtful far beyond our expectations.
