| Desc | Our primary program focuses on providing for the student's education and welfare.

Their sponsorship includes education, uniforms, eye exams, haircuts, lunch, and school materials. | Desc |

| Desc | Bridges to Learning (B2L) established the Breakfast fund as a means to provide the elementary school children a nutritious breakfast each morning. Many children come from families too poor to provide more than one meal a day and hungry children do not learn very well. | Desc |

| Desc | Research & Dissemination B2L performs research to gather information that can be useful for B2L strategic decision-making and for its partners, collaborators. Information that advances the B2L mission can be disseminated to the general public using social media vehicles. B2L uses the communications from students and schools in Vietnam, stories about their progress, and other information to help donors and interested parties understand education in its global context. | Desc |

| $4,415 | Collaborations & PartnershipsAs one of a relatively small number of organizations supplying resources to poor children in Vietnam, B2L has a unique position to become an organization that is also providing strength to the infrastructure of nonprofit organizations currently in Vietnam as a movement-maker, B2L initiates collaborations and partnerships that strengthen our ability to carry out our mission. We seek partners who work with models similar to ours, supporting the unique needs of each child. |
| $2,207 | School Asset ManagementEven though schools like Anh Linh Free School are poor in capital and cash, they still have more funds than many places in impoverished communities. Keeping the money donated from B2L in their local bank accounts can be a challenge. It attracts attention, and could be confiscated. For schools in developing countries, it is often safer to retain their funds offshore. B2L works with the school to help them with their cash flow and cash management. B2L is creating an escrow account to finance programs for the next year and help the school maintain, budget, and manage the flow of funds. |
| $2,207 | The capital building initiative provides for the furnishing of computer labs, dormitories, building maintenance and the construction of facilitities including new schools. |
