Bridges to Hope’s Bag to School program provides school supplies to families experiencing financial hardship in the St. John’s-Metro region.

Donate today to help us send hundreds of K-12 students back to school with all the tools they need to thrive:
This year, our original goal was to support 400 students, but we received nearly 900 applications. We can't meet this overwhelming need without your support.

Please be advised that due to a clerical error in the filing of our 2023 T3010 Charity Information Return, we are unable to issue tax receipts at this time.

This issue is entirely clerical in nature. All programs and services of Bridges to Hope continue to operate as normal. Tax receipts for donations made during this time will be issued as soon as we are able.

If you have any questions related to this matter, please contact Lesley Burgess, Executive Director, at lesleyb@bridgestohope.ca, or Ken Peters, Board Chair, at boardchair@bridgestohope.ca.


We are still accepting donations of new school supplies at our main office, 37 Cookstown Road, until August 29!
Donations can be dropped off Monday-Friday between 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM.
