History

WITH A VISION FOR RURAL COMMUNITY

Bridge to Care – Compassionate Healthcare and Community Support Across Borders

 

Bridge to Care is a not-for-profit healthcare organization, established in 2017 in Canada, dedicated to delivering compassionate, high-quality healthcare and community support services to individuals of all ages, abilities, and cultural backgrounds. With a mission rooted in dignity, respect, and personalized care, Bridge to Care ensures that individuals and families receive the support they need—when, where, and how they need it.

 

Comprehensive Healthcare and Senior Services in Canada

 

Bridge to Care Canada provides a wide range of programs designed to enhance well-being, independence, and quality of life. For seniors, the organization offers personalized home care, including nursing support, companion care, personal assistance, and flexible respite services available hourly, 24-hours, or for extended durations. These programs provide families with peace of mind, knowing that their loved ones are supported by skilled, compassionate professionals who treat each individual with dignity and respect.

​​

In addition to senior care, Bridge to Care offers therapeutic services for individuals with disabilities or special healthcare needs. Services include sensory programs, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, behavioral therapy, and diet-based meal planning. The organization also provides specialized sensory rooms and structured activities to promote engagement, cognitive development, and emotional well-being. Community inclusion programs encourage participation in social and recreational activities, helping clients develop skills, form meaningful relationships, and feel connected to their communities.

​​

By combining professional healthcare with holistic support, Bridge to Care ensures that individuals receive not only physical care but also emotional and social support that contributes to overall life satisfaction. The organization’s flexible, client-centered approach allows each person to receive care tailored to their unique needs, lifestyle, and goals.

​​

Leadership and Vision

​​

Bridge to Care is led by Founder Director Praise Abraham, whose vision and dedication have been instrumental in establishing the organization as a trusted provider of healthcare and community support services. Under his leadership, the organization has built a team of compassionate professionals committed to delivering quality care, building relationships, and creating meaningful, lasting impact in the lives of those they serve.

​​

In addition to local care, Bridge to Care Canada is affiliated with New Hope Missions (NHM), a global humanitarian initiative focused on improving the lives of underserved communities. NHM provides medical assistance, education for children, and women’s empowerment programs in developing nations. With support from board members Albert Letourneau, Darlene, and Michael Hilman, New Hope Missions has positively impacted over 1,500 lives in rural areas, reflecting Bridge to Care’s commitment to service both locally and globally.

Bridge to Care US – Serving Vulnerable Populations in Florida

​​

Bridge to Care also operates as a separate entity in the United States—Bridge to Care US, based in Florida. While independent, the US branch shares the same core mission of service and compassion and focuses on addressing critical social challenges in urban communities. Led by Dais Abraham, Bridge to Care US specializes in serving homeless populations, individuals struggling with drug addiction, and those in need of rehabilitation programs.

​​

Bridge to Care US works in partnership with New Testament Ministries, delivering practical support, rehabilitation, and outreach programs to some of the most vulnerable populations. The organization meets people where they are—on streets, in shelters, and in areas often overlooked by other services—to provide life-changing interventions and ongoing guidance. Programs include structured rehabilitation for individuals recovering from addiction, counseling, mentorship, and opportunities for community engagement that restore hope and purpose.

Through these programs, Bridge to Care US helps individuals regain stability, dignity, and independence. Homeless clients are provided with essential support, drug addicts receive structured recovery programs, and those affected by social or emotional marginalization are empowered to rebuild their lives. The organization’s approach emphasizes not only immediate assistance but also long-term transformation, equipping individuals with the tools, skills, and confidence needed to succeed in society.

​​

Though operating in distinct regions with different focus areas, Bridge to Care Canada and Bridge to Care US share a unified vision: to provide compassionate, holistic care that empowers individuals, restores hope, and transforms communities. Whether through home care and therapeutic programs in Canada or urban outreach and rehabilitation in Florida, the core mission remains the same: every life matters, and every individual deserves care, support, and opportunities to thrive.
