Make a Difference for Children in Need

Bridge of Hearts is dedicated to supporting homeless and impoverished children across the greater Lake Norman region. Each year we provide thousands of children from pre-K through 12th grade with birthday gifts, books, healthy snacks, and hygiene kits.

Our Mission and Vision

Mission

Our mission is engaging the community to celebrate, care for, and love our youngest and most vulnerable citizens.

Vision

A world where every child feels celebrated, cherished, and empowered to thrive.

Our Programs

Caring For Children

This program provides hygiene kits and bags of healthy snacks to children in need. School counselors also distribute go bags to children who are housing insecure. Go bags include a pillow, pillowcase, blanket, socks, hygiene items, and healthy snacks.

Celebrating Children

The Celebrating Children program provides gifts, books, a family celebration kit and a handwritten card to ensure every needy child can experience joy on their birthday no matter the circumstances they and their family face.

Caring For Babies

The Caring for Babies program provides homeless and impoverished middle and high school mothers with nursery items for their babies.

Support, Get Involved, Impact Lives

Browse Our Donation Catalog

Each year we distribute thousands of gifts, books, hygiene kits, and snack bags to local schools. Donations allow us to provide supplies to needy students in our local communities. You may also make a one-time, monthly, or annual donation.

Purchase From Our Wishlists

Shopping from our wishlists is a wonderful way to help us support the children of our local communities. You can purchase from our wishlists or use them as a guide for your local purchase.

Host a Collection Drive

Our Celebrating Birthdays program ensures children in our local communities can experience joy on their birthday. The goal of a collection drive is to restock our gift room for students from pre-K to 12th grade.

Plan a Service Project

Service projects allow you to create hygiene kits or snack bags from a location of convenience with a group of your choice.
