Comment on : Bridge Academy Gala Raises $46,000

Bridge Academy Gala Raises $46,000

The Bridge Academy of Lawrenceville, NJ raised over $46,000 at its 8th Annual “Reach for the Stars” Gala and Auction. The event was held at the Trenton Country Club on Saturday, April 9. Parent Co-chairs of the event were Christine Yetka of Manasquan NJ, Barabara Anderson of Morganville,NJ and Lynne Florio of Allentown, NJ.

At the Gala the school also raised $10,000 for its Build the Bridge Fund, enabling the school to receive a $5,000 matching grant from the Bruce J. Heim Foundation of Metarie, Louisiana. This is the 5th year in a row the school has received this generous challenge grant.

The Gala was a fantastic evening, highlighted by remarkable testimonials from Bridge students. Students at the Bridge Academy, a private, state approved school for the disabled, are bright kids with language-based learning disabilities. At Bridge they are provided with the environment, culture and resources they need to manage their disabilities, build their self-confidence and achieve academically.

The school thanks friends, neighbors and businesses in Lawrenceville and Princeton that helped to make this year’s Gala successful. Proceeds from the event support the future expansion of the school’s facilities.
