School on Wheels is on summer break and will resume when IPS begins its next academic year in the Fall. We will keep you updated on future training dates and opportunities towards the end of Summer 2011.
Training sessions for School on Wheels take place at the School on Wheels headquarters located at 2815 E. 62nd Street, Suite 200 in Indianapolis, IN.

BRIDGE loves working with other service-based organizations that support causes that are important to us! Most recently, we have collaborated with the United Way on their Day of Caring project by renovating the interior of St. Philip Neri School located on the near-East side of Indianapolis, as well as the Madame Walker Theater by giving their building a cleaning makeover. BRIDGE has also developed opportunities for our volunteers to tutor children from homeless families with the Indianapolis chapter of School on Wheels. We are currently working to find collaborative opportunities with Fight the Wackness, a positive and uplifting organization based in Indianapolis.
Are you involved in an organization that you think BRIDGE should collaborate with? Send us your suggestions!
