With 8 bridges already traversing the diverse landscape of Jacksonville, our aim is to become the ninth bridge that will serve as a connection between those who want to elevate in life and providing knowledge to get to a desired destination. The 9th Bridge 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, founded by Daryll Thorpe Jr, Doug Bryant Jr, Joshua Hay, Jamire Austin, Cedrick Newberry and Keith Bonet in 2016, started with the acronym A.C.T.
With the desire to develop themselves and their communities, 9th Bridge Jacksonville was materialized. The foundational core of these professionally-minded individuals center around: Accountability, Community and Technology.
