Bridges to Prosperity (B2P), is a program that envisions a world where poverty caused by rural isolation no longer exists.
Kito Crosby’s contribution will include the supply of critical products such as clips, turnbuckles, snatch blocks, special trolleys, and COLTs (wire rope tension meters) for the construction of bridges in Rwanda and Uganda.
Meet the 2023 B2P team
Together, they will be helping to build a Kansoro Trail bridge in Musanze, Rwanda.
The Kansoro Trail bridge will provide a safe and reliable connection to healthcare, education, food, and commerce for the nearly 4,000 people in the local villages.
