Bridges Society
Bridges Society
United Way of the Capital Region’s Bridges Society connects a diverse group of leaders through giving and volunteering.
Events
Network with other leaders in our community, including members of our Tocqueville Society and Women’s Leadership Network (WLN), and learn how working together, we can build a stronger community.
Events in 2025-2026:
- Summer Social: Members gathered at Appalachian Harley-Davidson to network and learn more about our workforce development program and our partnership with New Hope Ministries in this work.
- Tip Off for Tools: Held at the Cavoli Barn, members gathered to cheer on players who competed in a three-point contest. Members raised a remarkable $22,506 to purchase tools for 10 graduates of Tec Centro Capital Region’s Facilities Maintenance Program. Tec Centro Capital Region is one of our partners in our workforce development program.
Volunteering
Volunteer with other members on projects that make a difference in the areas of access to health care, basic needs, school readiness and workforce development.
Projects in 2025-2026:
- United for Science: Bridges, WLN and Tocqueville members chaperoned third-graders from Foose Elementary School in Harrisburg and Newport Elementary School for a fun-filled field trip to the Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts.
