3. Save Lives with Bridging the Gap Africa
Founded by Harmon Parker over 15 years ago, Bridging the Gap Africa began with the
building of a footbridge across a perilous river in Kenya.

When there are no bridges to cross rivers, children cannot attend school, farmers cannot
sell their produce, and entire villages can be left stranded in the middle of floodwaters.
Sometimes desperation drives people to try to cross the swollen rivers anyway, but these
attempts rarely end well.

Bridging the Gap Africa relies on donations to help fund building bridges across rivers in
various African countries. Each tax-deductible contribution allows the organization to
