About us
The Bridge Foundation
We care about the future of our children and provide practical solutions to problems of adolescent youth.
The Bridge Foundation (TBF) was founded in 1998 by Ambassador Ray Quarcoo, whose vision is to build a society where young people are enabled to maximize their potential to achieve an improved quality of life free from exploitation. TBF provides opportunities and resources for participants to build socio-economic skills through formal education, vocation/life skills training and sports development.

Our Operational Mission
To empower disadvantaged children /young people with skills that will enable them reach their full potential.
Poverty can shape whole communities for generations. The best strategies for combatting its effects and progressing into better future must come from within the community itself. The Bridge Foundation believes that children in deprived communities are true development experts.
Its ambitious young people have resounding hope and remarkable creativity.
They have the talent and initiative to create real, sustainable change. Often times all they need are the resources and some support network to help their ideas thrive.
Through our work, we seek to break the cycle of deprivation and poverty. We empower our children and young people to overcome the challenges they face that hold them back. We develop our programs in the context of local circumstances, in partnership with children, young people and their families, as well as community leadership and local authorities.
