Pender Bridge of Hope
Helping members of our community
in short-term need
Locally led, volunteer driven
Pender Bridge of Hope is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2022. Our mission is to support working residents of Pender County during times of financial crisis. PBH accomplishes this by fundraising and paying legitimate bills for families in need.
We are volunteer-led and work diligently to secure donated food, services, and items for our fundraisers so that 100% of the funds we raise go directly to helping families.
Examples of needs we have met include helping women escape abusive situations and secure safe housing for themselves and their children; assisting individuals with medically necessary devices not covered by insurance; paying utility bills so families can maintain heat and running water; and covering essential automobile repairs so individuals can continue traveling to work.
Please help our neighbors by donating and attending our fundraising events.
Our Mission Statement:
Pender Bridge of Hope was formed to be a bridge for those in financial need.
The difference between hopeless and hopeful can often be negligible when one of our Pender County residents has a temporary financial crisis such as a necessary car repair, a washing machine that quits, unexpected medical bills, or other such financial surprises, and inadequate funds to bridge the gap. Pender Bridge of Hope is a 501(c)(3) entity that has been formed to help those residents of Pender County who are facing unexpected financial crises and cannot find readily available resources. The intent is to provide funding to a third-party provider to help these citizens in their time of need. Our referrals will come from schools, social services, churches, and even our police department that have verified there is a critical and sudden need.
Our goal is to provide a financial bridge to give them help and thus hope.
