Who We Are

Jesus Christ - Our Foundation & Guide

Everything we do at The Bridge is because of Him. Jesus is our reason, our purpose, and the source of the compassion we extend to every person we meet. He showed us how to love without conditions, serve without limits, and extend grace freely to all. Our mission is to love people the way Jesus loves — with open arms, a kind heart, and a willingness to walk alongside anyone in their time of need.

You do not have to believe what we believe to receive help here. There are no requirements, no barriers, and no judgment. Every person is welcome. We simply seek to reflect the love, grace, and compassion of Jesus in every act of service, every conversation, and every connection we make.

I’m an entrepreneur, community advocate, and mother of three, driven by faith, perseverance, and purpose. My story is one of resilience: I moved all over the country as a child, attended over 15 schools, and worked full-time to support my single mother while maintaining A/B honor roll. These experiences shaped my discipline, empathy, and understanding of people.
I bring years of leadership and management experience to my work and now serve as Project Manager and Marketing Operations for MVA, supporting community programs and veteran initiatives through meaningful merch. I’m also the owner of Graced Goods and Faithful Finds LLC, where I handcraft custom work that bridge purpose with practicality.
At the heart of everything I do-whether in business, advocacy, or motherhood- is a simple belief: small acts of kindness can create lasting change, and every challenge is an opportunity to serve with love and grace.

Carli Worley - CoFounder

I grew up in a small town in Montana, where I learned early on the value of helping others and the power of true community. Life keeps me busy, but as I always say.. Busy is good. I’ve been with my husband for nine years, am raising two little ones under three, and share my home with three dogs, a few fish, and a collection of plants.
Giving back has always been at the center of who I am. I find joy in volunteering, serving my community, and working in spaces that are often overlooked or forgotten. I’m blessed to also work with A Case for Women, a legal advocacy service that helps individuals find the support they need during times of crisis. I look forward to the many gaps we will fill and the wonderful people we will meet along the way.
