New Fundraising Partnership Spotlight: Eastman Credit Union

We’re thrilled to share that The Bridge Home No Kill Animal Rescue has been selected as a 2026 fundraising partner through Eastman Credit Union’s “Casual for a Cause” employee giving program.

Since 2020, ECU employees have supported local nonprofits by donating $1 per paycheck, with funds matched dollar-for-dollar by Eastman Credit Union. Employees also vote to select the organizations they want to support — and we’re honored to have been chosen! Throughout 2026, ECU staff will proudly wear Casual for a Cause T-shirts featuring The Bridge Home, helping spread awareness about our rescue while raising vital funds.

This partnership will provide meaningful financial support to help us continue saving lives and caring for animals in need across our community. We’re deeply grateful to Eastman Credit Union and its employees for believing in our mission and investing in compassionate impact.

Trap-Neuter-Return Program

We are looking forward to bringing a Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program to the Tri-Cities to help with the over population of colony cats. It is our hope that this program will assist our community in the overpopulation of feral cats and help reduce, if not eliminate, the risk of having a rabies outbreak in our region.

To be a part of our groundbreaking efforts, contact Heather O’Daniel (heather.odaniel@bridgehome.org) to learn how you can get involved.
