Formed exclusively for charitable services, educational assistance, providing and training & developing purposes within the meaning of section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

OCB's "Homeless to Home Initiative" provides a complete "Wrap-Around Service" by offering direct assistance that will

help break barriers, allowing renters to pursue the dream of transiting into a homeowner.

OCB's Wrap-Around Service is committed to stabilizing the community one house at a time by providing: 

​

• Free 2 hour Community Stakeholders Maintenance Education Workshop aimed at helping residents

to become responsible tenants and how to maintain a healthy living environment. 

 

• 90 days of free access to Our Community Bridge Wrap-Around Services in partnerships with

Wayne County Neighborhood Legal Services (WCNLS) / Neighborhood Legal Services Michigan (NLSM).

​

• Free Renter Starter Kit with household cleaning supplies.

• Certificate upon completion of the workshop to tenants to show landlords they are fit to rent.

• Community Food Distribution Center​

​

“Our Community Bridge,” has broadened the scope of this initiative to link resources throughout the City of Detroit to aid in "Our Community Bridge Household and Furniture Pantry."  OCB has provided and delivered washers, dryers, stoves, refrigerators, furniture and other household items to young adults at our own cost; however, we see the need growing larger and larger as inflation and interest rates continue to rise. OCB will serve as a one-stop Household and Furniture Pantry assisting residents who cannot afford furniture and other essential items for living.  This expansion enables us to support our local communities through the generous contributions of community donors.

At Our Community Bridge, our dedication lies in channeling our knowledge and resources towards advancing our mission. Our Community Bridge has been aiding our community through diverse means, gauging our impact not by financial figures but by the breadth and impact of our initiatives. Together, the possibilities for what we can accomplish are boundless!
