Bridge to Bravery
At Kids of Queens, we know bravery isn’t just about pushing through—it’s about owning your story and standing tall, no matter the odds. The Bridge to Bravery is our spotlight program that celebrates remarkable kids who refuse to back down. These kids face challenges head-on and prove every day that they’re tougher than whatever life throws their way.
Through this program, we shine a light on a kid who’s walking their own Bridge to Bravery—overcoming obstacles and showing the world what real strength looks like. For each spotlight, we donate 10% of net proceeds to a charity tied to their journey, bringing awareness and resources to the cause closest to their heart.
This isn’t just about raising awareness; it’s about giving these kids a platform to share their stories and inspire others. Just like a bridge connects distant points, the Bridge to Bravery links kids with the support they need to keep moving forward, while showing the world what resilience truly means.
