TechBridge

TechBridge is bringing our mission to end generational poverty to the podcast arena. We will tell our story, and the stories of so many people working around our four pillars: hunger relief, homeless support, social justice, and workforce development. On TechBridge Talks, you will get to know our board, staff, customers, and the community leaders that are pushing boundaries, pursuing good, and working to end generational poverty. We believe we can provide predictable pathways out of generational poverty through the combination of technology and data. Join us on the journey!
