This week, I'm excited to share a huge collective win – for BridgeCare, our partners, and the ECE providers and families we serve together.
BridgeCare has received a $10 million investment from Avenue Growth Partners in support of our mission to make high-quality early care and education accessible and affordable for everyone. As a women-owned business focused on early care and education, such an investment is extremely rare and something we are very proud to achieve for the sector.
We’ve gotten to this point by viewing our customers as our most important investors and using our parent-led team to design solutions that truly deliver impact where legacy systems have fallen short. This new partnership with Avenue enables us to build on that momentum and bring our platform to even more states and counties to power equitable and accessible early care and education systems.
I'm infinitely grateful to my co-founders, Jonathan Kirst and Hollie Stoyles, and our incredibly talented team for their dedication to driving positive impact in ECE, and for making this work energizing (even when it's hard). Thank you to our new partners at Avenue, Ryan Russell and Oscar Lee, for seeing the value in ECE and partnering with us to further our mission.
We hope you'll follow us to see progress, learn about career opportunities, and find other ways we can work together to create a brighter future for families and providers. We're just getting started!
