Hey fam,
We’ve got an important update to share with you.
After realizing that Angela, Vivian, Lavender, Audrey, and Stanley wouldn’t be able to travel on the original timeline due to delays with their documents, we met with everyone involved to decide the best way forward.
Together, we’ve agreed to postpone the Austria trip to 3rd November – 19th December 2025.
Why?
Because no child should be left behind — and every single one of them deserves to be part of this once-in-a-lifetime journey. It was a tough call, but it was the most compassionate decision we could make.
To be honest, it was an emotional day.
When Lavender found out she might miss the trip, she was devastated — she cried nearly the whole day. Angela was also really shaken. These kids have put their hearts into this dream. But knowing they’ll all still go — just a little later — has helped bring back their smiles.
The silver lining?
Now we have more time to prepare — thoroughly, calmly, and with care. And that means we can make this experience even more powerful for them.
To everyone who’s supported this project so far: thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. You are making real dreams come true.
As we continue planning, we’d love to hear from you — any ideas or support are welcome to help us create the incredible experience these children deserve.
With deep gratitude,
The Bridge of Cultures Team
