Mission and programs · 2024

• Our integrated programming encourages our girls to lead holistically healthy lives: emotionally, socially, and physically. Weekly lessons focus on topics such as healthy relationships, cultural awareness, and leadership and goal setting. Lessons are reinforced with out-of-school trips and activities such as participation in our annual Career & Innovation Summit, attendance at youth empowerment conferences, opportunities for community advocacy, college tours, and more.

  Expenses $382,003

• The Community Bridges school-based Girls Program encourages girls in 4th through 12th grades to explore their identity, increase their self-esteem, and build their character in a safe and nurturing space. Using a tested, grade-integrated curriculum girls in our CB Girls program develop leadership skills and personal responsibility through a variety of experiential and in classroom learning opportunities. Our Girls Program supports the growth of our young women over a 9-year continuum by helping them understand their potential and life choices, learn creative strategies to become leaders, and break their familys cycle of poverty using education as a vehicle.CB Elementary: Conducted 35 weeks of summer and after school program sessions in areas that support academic excellence, positive leadership, personal health and team building by involving all participants in planned and monitored community service activities at their schools and in the community. CB Girls participated in 4,653 hours of weekly program participation; 1,054.5 hours of special events and field trips. The total hours of participation were 5707.5 hours.

• The Community Bridges College Access and Success Program provides girls in high school with the resources needed for their next steps after high school graduation. Each girl receives weekly one-on-one counseling with our College Access and Success Team on college and career prospects, coaching through her FAFSA and Common Application processes, workshops on topics such as job interview preparation, essay writing, and navigating financial aid, monthly opportunities to visit colleges/universities, job shadowing opportunities, and any additional resources needed for her personal success in college and beyond. With a strong emphasis on success during post-secondary education, the College Access and Success Program strives to increase our graduates level of preparation, application, acceptance, and enrollment in colleges and universities. We had over 155 students participate in the program. 40 girls graduated from high school and 100% applied and enrolled in postsecondary education.

• The Community Bridges Mentoring Program connects positive female role models with diverse high school girls for an impactful mentoring experience. Our High School and Mentoring Program Manager recruits women from diverse work, economic, and educational backgrounds and individually pairs them with a high school girl from our Community Bridges Girls Program. Throughout the course of the year a mentor and mentee work together to achieve the mentees long-and short-term goals while developing a close, caring relationship based upon consistency, mutual respect and trust. Mentors and mentees engage in monthly training activities and events including youth development workshops, service opportunities, and college tours. A Mentor Discussion and Activity Guide provides topics to discuss including career prospects, mental health and body image, and self-efficacy/advocacy. These activities and discussions foster strong mentor/mentee relationships, providing girls with the network of support they need as they navigate high school and the college/career application process. In FY25 we had 27 mentoring matches with 478 hours of reported mentoring.

  Expenses $45,074

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
