Bridging Over's mission to provide at risk unhoused families and individuals with essential items to improve their safety and health started as the passion project of one man. When Randy arrived in Colorado by bus from Wisconsin, he found himself unhoused and needed help. Luckily, through the charity of several local organizaations, he was able to find his way into a home and a good job. This major life event left Randy with the undeniable feeling that he had to do something to help Bridge the Gap that divides the housed and unhoused.
Mission
The mission of Bridging Over is to help the unhoused work collaboratively towards the resolution of homelessness and create lasting solutions for both the unhoused and at risk families throughout Lakewood Colorado. We help by implementing safety initiatives. Our Safety Bags provide supplies to assist in helping the unhoused population navigate the dangerous roadways of the area. By providing reflective wristbands it increases visibility at night and hours of diminished light. Our goal is to increase the visibility of those at risk of accidents caused by unaware drivers.
Our continuance of these programs is instrumental in our mission to help the Colorado homeless population.
