THE SISTERBRIDGE FUND™
The SisterBridge Fund™ provides direct, no-strings-attached financial assistance to Black women facing urgent needs.
Give what makes sense. Contributions begin at $5.
Contributions to The SisterBridge Fund™ are not tax deductible.
WHY THE BRIDGE EXISTS
Black women are navigating job loss, economic instability and the consequences of systems that too often leave us without somewhere to turn when the unexpected happens.
The SisterBridge Fund™ was created for that space between crisis and stability: the rent payment that cannot wait, the groceries that still have to be bought, the utility bill that is already due or the unexpected expense standing between a woman and her next step.
We refuse to wait for someone elseto build the safety nets we need.
DIRECT ASSISTANCE PROVIDED
Since its launch, The SisterBridge Fund™ has provided more than $1,300 in direct financial assistance to help Black women meet immediate needs.
Funded by Delnic Media and people who chose to help build the bridge.
No long applications. No endless red tape.
When need is clear and we can help, we respond.HOW THE BRIDGE WORKS
The SisterBridge Fund was built to move with urgency, discretion and dignity. When the need is clear and the Fund has the ability to respond, we keep the process simple.
Sometimes a need comes through a direct conversation. Sometimes it is visible in plain sight. When a Black woman is facing an immediate financial crisis, we look for where a timely bridge could make a real difference.
Assistance is provided without a maze of forms, endless interviews or layers of approval. The goal is to help address the immediate need, not make someone perform hardship for us.
Receiving assistance does not require public disclosure. Recipients are never required to share their names, circumstances or gratitude as the price of being helped.
We share aggregate impact, fund allocations and progress without turning recipients into content. Transparency belongs to the Fund. Dignity belongs to the women it serves.
No proving your pain. No performing your gratitude.
Just a bridge when one is needed.WHAT YOUR GIFT CAN DO
Financial crises are rarely abstract. Sometimes what stands between a Black woman and a little breathing room is one expense she simply cannot absorb right now.
Every situation is different, but these examples show what direct assistance can make possible.
A mental health session, transportation to work or another immediate expense that cannot wait.
Groceries for a household when an unexpected financial gap makes the basics harder to cover.
Utilities, part of a rent payment or another pressing obligation threatening immediate stability.
An urgent car repair, medical expense, moving cost or another larger crisis that requires more than a temporary patch.
GIVE WHAT MAKES SENSE
Every contribution adds to what The SisterBridge Fund can make available when help is needed.
Examples are illustrative. Assistance is based on individual circumstances, available Fund resources and the immediate need.
TRANSPARENCY & IMPACT
The SisterBridge is intentionally simple, but simple does not mean opaque. We believe the people who help fund this work should understand how contributions are used and what the Fund is making possible.
Ninety-three percent of contributions goes directly toward financial assistance.
Processing, disbursement and Fund operations that keep assistance moving securely.
IMPACT
We share aggregate assistance totals, milestones and periodic updates so the impact of SisterBridge can be seen without exposing the women receiving help.
DIGNITY
Transparency does not require turning someone’s crisis into content. Recipient stories are shared only when appropriate and without sacrificing dignity for proof of impact.
STEWARDSHIP
Seven percent supports the infrastructure required to receive, process and disburse contributions and maintain the Fund.
BUILT BY MORE THAN ONE PAIR OF HANDS
The SisterBridge has been funded by Delnic Media alongside people who chose to contribute. As the Fund grows, so does our ability to respond when the need is clear.
When the safety net isn’t there,we build the bridge.
