Bridgeway’s board recently reaffirmed its intent to continue existing relationships as well as seek new partnerships with two distinct types of charitable groups:

--Cambridge, Ontario community charities serving people in need in our local area.
--Canadian Christian charities which enable people to serve outside their faith communities.

The profile of charitable organization that we seek to partner with is: one which is ready to take risks, is at the edge of innovative practices, is organizationally healthy, and is actively offering relevant and effective services to people in communities across Canada and around the world.   Bridgeway’s role is to provide the encouragement and means for our partners to stretch beyond their existing capacities, partnering with them at the edges of their transformational outreach to advance hope and opportunity.

Bridgeway Foundation is an affiliate member of the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada, as are many of our grantee partners. In addition, we favour organizations valuing organizational accountability and integrity. Having the Canadian Council of Christian Charities (CCCC) seal of financial accountability is one way that an organization can demonstrate that they have achieved these standards.

In 2009, Bridgeway Foundation has also become a member of Philanthropic Foundations Canada, a national membership association for Canada's independent grantmaking foundations. 

Finally, in the course of our work, we frequently encounter other donors who desire to make a difference in the world.  Bridgeway Foundation actively seeks partnerships (formal and informal) with donor groups as well as charities to advance charitable objectives.
