Stories of financial mismanagement and bad investments have dominated the headlines for the past six months. It’s been a troubling time of loss for many, not a time of growth. Yet that is what we are doing at Peninsula Bridge. We’re as committed as ever to making sure more middle school students from under-resourced homes and schools get the support they need to be successful in school and life.
For the second consecutive year, we’ve added a new program site, which has enabled us to support 30% more students than we did in 2007. Education is the core of opportunity and success - it’s the cornerstone of our mission - and an investment we can definitely count on. The returns are always positive.
