The Bridge Builders® 20th Anniversary Red Carpet Celebration is history - and what a soiree it was! Thanks to all who attended and to all those who volunteered for the event. And thanks to presenting sponsor SunTrust and all our sponsors (listed below and on the accompanying link.) Another heartfelt "Thank You" goes out to guest speaker Herman Boone (shown at left) for sharing his message of acceptance, tolerance, diversity and honor with the crowd of nearly 500 attendees.

Next to last, but certainly not least, thank you to True Story Pictures for producing "Leveling the Playing Field: 20 Years of Bridge Builders," which premiered at the event to rave reviews. And finally, thanks in to Comcast for agreeing to air the documentary film this past summer on Channels 30 and 31. Learn more about Bridge Builders here.

Thanks to all our 20th Anniversary sponsors!
