News Release CENTRAL FLORIDA NONPROFIT SAYS GOODBYE GALA AFTER 16 YEARS The Bridges of Light Foundation Announces an Innovative New Fundraising Platform which Eliminates the Need for a High-Overhead Gala Orlando, Florida (October 11, 2019) - The Bridges of Light Foundation, a Central Florida nonprofit who has been supporting at-risk Central Florida youth and their families through school-based initiatives, community partnerships and family services since 2004, announced at the16th Annual Players Ball (held on Saturday October 5th at Walt Disney’s Four Seasons Resort) that this would be the last year for their popular annual fundraising gala. The Bridges of Light Foundation is transitioning to an innovative new fundraising platform which eliminates the need for a high-overhead and labor-intensive gala. The organization’s new fundraising partnership model engages private and corporate donors by asking them to take the Bridge Builder Challenge and commit to $100,000 over a ten-year period. The announcement was made at the gala on Saturday night where $300,000 was secured in the first five minutes from long-term supporters: Winter Park Construction, Armstrong Air and Fine Dentistry Orlando. “Securing a confirmed income stream over a long-term period, allows our organization to stay hyper-focused on helping the kids, without the long pause which comes each year when it’s time to plan and fundraise for a gala.” says Bridges of Light Founder, Stacey Papp Americans give over $400 billion annually to the 1.5 million nonprofit organizations in the United States (2018 report). The nonprofits that thrive are reported to be the ones that provide the biggest impact to those they serve by working at high efficiency and providing focused care to fill a specific need.  Earlier this year the Bridges of Light Foundation launched the Community Alliance - a quarterly roundtable event designed to create impactful partnerships amongst nonprofit organizations and local businesses in order to most efficiently provide for at-risk Central Florida youth. For more information or to connect with the Bridges of Light Foundation you can visit www.bridgesoflightfoundation.org or phone Ray Gaines at 407-490-3290. # # # Media Contact: Paula Wyatt Paula@AnythingisPoshAble.com 321-946-6565

Orlando, Fla. (August 19, 2019) – On Wednesday, July 24th Shepherd’s Hope celebrated the opening of the new West Orange Medical Heath Center located in Winter Garden. The new facility will allow a sustainable path to providing uninsured patient’s greater accessibility to essential primary and secondary medical services, health management and education, and wellness programs in this growing community. The program model, from mission inception, is deeply rooted in a commitment to cultural competence and is identified by unique collaborations that bring essential health care to any person regardless of faith, gender, age, ethnicity or ability to provide proof of residency documentation. Due to the significant increase in the uninsured patients’ need for access to healthcare, Shepherd’s Hope found it was limited in successfully achieving desired outcomes for the West Orange County community without the commitment to creating a permanent central office and clinical footprint that for the first time in the organization’s history would unify these two crucial aspects of the organization. During this monumental ceremony, we gathered with our committed partners such as the West Orange Healthcare District, West Orange Health Alliance, Dr. P. Phillips Charities, Bailes Family Foundation, The City of Winter Garden, faith partners and members of the community.  “With the new development of West Orange Medical Health Center, we are poised to expand our impact beyond our existing health care centers in Central Florida,” said Pamela Gould, President and CEO, Shepherd’s Hope. “Together, our leadership Board of Directors, volunteers and supporters will build upon our model of success, providing free, essential primary and secondary/specialty medical care to the underserved in the West Orange Community,” she said. Joined with Gould, Brian Walsh, President and CEO of The Collage Companies. - "After 22 years, Pastor Barnes’ vision, Shepherd’s Hope has become the largest free health center in the State of Florida. They have an amazing success story. Almost half of the 275,000 patient visits and medical services provided are from employed uninsured individual with no other option or hope to receive medical care. Shepherd’s Hope is a true lifesaver. Their Why speaks for itself, however the biggest reason is because of the heart of its people; board members, volunteering medical providers, investors and caring staff. They are true “behind the scenes heroes” in our community. The mission of the Collage Companies for 37 years has been “to build projects that strengthen the foundation and fabric of our community”. I can’t think of any other project that better fits that definition. We have been honored to be part of this project." About Shepherd’s Hope Shepherd’s Hope is the leading voice for the uninsured and underinsured in Central Florida. Founded in 1997, the faith-based nonprofit organization provides free primary care and specialty care medical services to uninsured men, women and children from five free standing health centers in Orange and Seminole counties. In 2018, Shepherd’s Hope provided 19,033 free patient visits and medical services thanks to partnerships with 2,800 licensed medical and general volunteers, 3 community hospital systems, 100 diagnostic/secondary providers and numerous multi-faith partners.
