This Nonprofit is Ending Poverty with AppExchange Apps and Trailbridges

This Nonprofit is Helping End Poverty with AppExchange Apps and Trailbridges

In 2001, Bridges to Prosperity (B2P) founder Ken Frantz saw a photo in National Geographic Magazine that moved him to action. The image showed men dangling precariously, using ropes to pull each other across a wide, high, and broken bridge span over a portion of the Blue Nile River in Ethiopia. Ken soon discovered that his brother, Forrest Frantz, had seen the photo and had the same thought: “I want to repair that bridge.”

Twenty-one years later, B2P has built more than 390 trailbridges, serving over 1.4 million community members in 20 countries around the world. Together, they are using technology and teamwork to solve rural isolation. We sat down with VP of Evaluation, Abbie Noriega, and Systems & Analytics Manager Dan Chao to learn how AppExchange apps are helping B2P solve poverty and create connection and opportunity.
