In the spirit of giving and kindness, Bridges to Independence recently had the privilege of collaborating with the wonderful team at SixDegrees for one of their Basic Kindness events. Led by SixDegrees’ founder, acclaimed Golden Globe-winning actor, musician, and philanthropist, Kevin Bacon, this heartwarming initiative aimed to provide support for our children and families we serve by packing 300 backpacks filled with essential items, and a little extra love. What truly warmed our hearts was the extra mile that SixDegrees went to include not just necessary supplies but also fun items for the children who would receive these backpacks. Their thoughtfulness in adding a touch of joy to each bag demonstrated their commitment to spreading positivity and making a tangible difference in the lives of these families. Thank you, SixDegrees, for your incredible work and for putting smiles on the faces of those who need it most!
