Charities
The CSA of West Michigan has always put an emphasis on the needs not just of our security community but the larger community as well. Below are the “official” charities of the West Michigan CSA with links to how you can donate or get involved. We truly believe in the amazing work that all of these organizations are doing and hope that you will join us in supporting them as well.
Bridges in Tech
A tech community for Women of Color

Bridges In Tech believes in working together to close the diversity gap without compromising our values. We identify the root cause of the issue instead of continuing to apply bandaids to a wound that’s never healing. We provide the resources and support necessary for women of color to start and excel in tech careers/field worldwide. For more information or to donate to our program, please go to www.bridgesintech.com
Alex’s Saints Foundation focuses on helping families who have a loved one suffering from drug addiction. Whether it’s for rehab or a funeral, lean on ASF for emotional and financial support.
Alex was known to light up any room with his contagious smile, energy, and laughter. At the age of 24, Alex St. Pierre lost his battle to drugs and left the world too soon from an overdose.
