Sycamore Bridges

Sycamore Bridges received a generous donation of Size 5 diapers, the most requested size across our community. These items were placed with families who utilize our local food pantry. No additional donations are needed at this time; however, we are always accepting NEW donations of diapers (especially larger sizes) and baby wipes.

Sycamore Bridges is working with a community advocate to assist a custodial grandmother of two Sycamore students with the purchase of a new HVAC unit. The family lives on a fixed income that does not allow for this unexpected but emergent expense, especially as the cold weather settles in. Our advocate is working with a reputable company who has given a tremendous discount to get the unit installed on short order. We would like to cover as much of the $3600 bill as possible. Thanks to a very generous gift, we only have $600 left to collect. If you would like to offer assistance, CLICK HERE and designate your donation to "HVAC Unit".

Sycamore Bridges is working with a Sycamore school counselor to assist a family with their Duke energy bill after receiving a notice of disconnection. The family works hard, but is going through a tough moment with some unexpected expenses. We have been asked to cover their $478.06 outstanding bill by December 16 to avoid disconnection. If you would like to assist with this request, CLICK HERE and designate your gift to "Electric Disconnection".

Sycamore Bridges is working with a Sycamore Schools nurse to assist a student whose family just left a group home for their own apartment! In an effort to make the student feel comfortable in their new environment, we have been asked to provide a white noise machine. Thanks to a kind donor, this request was filled before being posted! No additional donations are needed at this time.

To ensure we receive your gifts in time for the 2025 OGB Holiday Store, our lists will close TONIGHT! We are still in need of board games, Lego sets, toy cars/tracks, and puzzles for all ages!

Sycamore Bridges is excited to partner with Operation Give Back to help fill their annual Holiday Store for the sixth year in a row! We recognize the added financial struggle for many families around the holidays, especially this year, and we believe everyone should be able to celebrate this special time together in a carefree way. OGB and Sycamore Bridges work together to curate OUR AMAZON REGISTRY and OUR TARGET WISH LIST to reflect the families' most requested gifts as they register for the Holiday Store. OGB served over 1500 children last year and they expect similar numbers this holiday season; therefore, our lists are extensive. Please scroll all the way through to find options at every price point. Our lists will be updated frequently, so check back often to see the latest requests. Remember to select  "OGB Holiday Store" for shipping so your purchases are sent directly to us. Thank you for your continued support in making sure all of our neighbors have a memorable holiday season. (If you would like a tax receipt for your purchase, reply to this post and we will email you!)

Sycamore Bridges is working with the JH Wresting coach to make sure every student on the team has a branded t-shirt to wear on match days. The team consists of 55 boys and 8 girls this year, and all but 11 students have purchased branded spirit wear. In an effort to allow all kids to feel a part of the team, we have been asked to cover the 11 students at $15 each.
