Globally 1 in 7 people are unable to access markets, employment, schools, and healthcare year-round because of an impassable river. For 250 millions people, one trailbridge would solve this problem. Your donation to Bridges to Prosperity helps build bridges to better lives in rural communities.
Fika (formerly Bridges to Prosperity) envisions a world where poverty caused by rural isolation no longer exists. Rural isolation is a root cause of poverty, and we believe that connection is the foundation to opportunity. We work with local communities, partners and foundations, to build trailbridges that connect residents to education, health care and economic opportunity. With a sophisticated data collection and evaluation program, we're able to prove that the value and impact of our work is sustained long after the opening celebration.
Since 2001, Fika has connected local communities with healthcare, education and market opportunities by teaching them how to build trailbridges over impassable rivers. Through building to educate, we build local capacity by training community members.
In partnership with corporations, universities, and civic organizations, Fika develops safe and locally appropriate technologies that are openly shared. International exchange opportunities provide leadership development, team building and personal growth opportunities that give back to our partners for years to come.
