Fernando Ramirez’s family migrated to the U.S., facing language and cultural barriers. This experience sparked a commitment to support marginalized communities, planting the early seeds of Bridges 2030.
With 25 years of social impact experience, Fernando established Bridges 2030 as a 501(c)(3) NGO. Inspired by global travels and the UN SDGs, it supports those in need while educating future changemakers.
Bridges 2030 works with Congreso de Latinos Unidos to help Philadelphia families. Through “Books & Boots,” education meets teamwork taught through soccer, and an annual gift drive extends our local impact.
When conflict displaced millions in Ukraine, Bridges 2030 aided those settling in Philadelphia. We raised $7,500 for essentials and amplify Ukrainian voices by hosting presentations where individuals share their journeys.
Our debut film showcases displaced Ukrainian families in Philadelphia and relief efforts in Poland, illustrating the power of storytelling to inspire empathy. By engaging schools, we empower the next generation of global citizens.
OUR MISSION
“We cultivate compassion by bridging the gap between good intentions and effective action. As a nonprofit organization, we catalyze and educate the social impact community to support scalable and replicable projects worldwide. We stand with disadvantaged and marginalized communities, including forcibly displaced citizens, by amplifying their voices, raising awareness, and securing donations for lasting impact. To ensure our work outlives us, we empower and mobilize the next generation of changemakers to transform empathy into action.”
