The proceeds from this year's Bridge Builders will go toward funding our Uplift U® Self-Sufficiency Program, emergency shelter, education and employment programs for homeless families, teens and children. We take a holistic approach towards helping our families reach self-sufficiency-- from the child in daycare to our after school teen and adult education to job placement. Join us in empowering them toward self-sufficiency and inspiring them to dream big and break the cycle of poverty.

 

 

Metropolitan Ministries is proud to congratulate The Tuohy Family for inspiring the Oscar Award-Winning film The Blind Side.  Boasting double Oscar nominations, The Blind Side won the award for Best Actress: Sandra Bullock as Leigh Anne Tuohy.
