I hope Bridge Up spreads throughout the country!

This podcast proved reason number million and one why libraries are relevant and irreplaceable and not businesses! Please keep doing this!

thank you!

Gabriela, thank you so much for this comment -- we were really fired up and we're glad you are too!

I wish I had this at my library

I wish I had this program at my library when I was younger. A lot of educational programs out there are so concerned with funding that the students start missing out. It seems that Bridge Up really cares about every single participant. What a special thing! Please spread this to other locations!
