We encourage and support responsible school attendance so youth can be successful in school and have positive choices in their future. Bright Hopes kept youth learning by supporting them with staying connected to their school. We provided information and connections to community supportive resources and encouraged youth with incentives and motivating activities. We also provided snacks to keep youth encouraged. It is hard to learn if you are hungry. Sometimes youth just need a responsible adult to listen to them. We provided food and food connections, and we advocated for families who needed support for their basic needs of clothing, food, and shelter. We provided laundry supplies and support when needed. 1000 8416 8416 Bonnie Phillips Board of Director 1 0 0 0 Gwendolyn Forney President and Director 3 1080 0 0 Tawana Gladden Treasurer 2 0 0 0 Shirley Crawford Board Chair 1 0 0 0 Xiomara Livingston Secretary 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NC Tawana Gladden P O Box 42427 Charlotte NC 28215 7047231194 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 20476 22924 17048 15789 13850 90087 20476 22924 17048 15789 13850 90087 90087 20476 22924 17048 15789 13850 90087 1 1 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Other expenses include program insurance, website, licenses and program supplies, accounting fees, workshopes and food.
