If you spend time in the PacMoore community or interact with us on social media, you’ve probably heard us mention a place called The Bridge Teen Center. This is a place making big waves in Orland Park, IL and the surrounding cities. Their programming for teens is developed around the kids’ interests and desires, which makes it an amazing place where students actually want to go. Teens spend after-school hours there to develop mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually in a safe environment. Because of the impact The Bridge Teen Center has had, they are now one of four finalists in the Midwest region who could win Chick-fil-A’s prestigious True Inspiration Award.
The Bridge Teen Center Could Win a $75,000 Grant
The Chick-Fil-A Foundation’s $75,000 grant would provide 300 students with unlimited access to The Bridge Teen Center’s programming for one full year. If you think this is a good cause, make sure to cast your vote by October 21, 2017! BONUS: You’ll receive a free breakfast from Chick-Fil-A!
