Jana Shogren, Executive Director of Bridges of Hope, and Tedi Russell, Marketing & Community Engagement Manager, shared an exciting update on the recent approval for the Bridge on 7th to operate year-round, marking a significant step forward in providing consistent support to those in need. They expressed sincere gratitude to the community for its continued backing, emphasizing that ongoing operations will rely heavily on sustained financial support, volunteers, and local partnerships. They also highlighted Operation Sandwich, which is gearing up for a busy summer season. The program provides free lunches to children and families during the months when school is not in session, helping fill a critical gap for many in the Brainerd Lakes Area. With demand expected to rise, they noted a strong need for volunteers and donations to keep the program running smoothly.
