OUR STORY

BRDG Career Launchpad

TALENT IS EVERYWHERE. OPPORTUNITY IS NOT.

Talented first-generation STEM students have the drive to succeed - but often lack the professional experience, industry connections and mentors that help turn a college education into a career. BRDG changes that.


TODAY, YOUR GIFT IS DOUBLED.

Help first-generation STEM students make the leap from college to career.


THE INNOVATION CHALLENGE

A five-month, real-world career experience where students don't just learn about the professional world - THEY WORK IN IT.

        • Tackle a real-world challenge

        • Manage a $3500 project budget

        • Build a working prototype

        • Present to industry professionals


Along the way, they build the problem-solving, communication, teamwork and leadership skills employers want - plus the confidence and connections to launch a career.

REAL PROJECTS-Working prototypes | REAL COACHES-Industry guidance | REAL PITCHES-Industry judges
