The Tyler Gerth Polaroid Project
Building Equal Bridges The Tyler Gert Foundation has partnered with Louisville Urban League in The Tyler Gerth Polaroid Project. This Program is a wonderful opportunity for a group of children to receive a Polaroid Camera for them to keep. Each child will learn to use the camera, the history of photography and how it came shape their future. The Program will allow each child to utilize photography as a tool to express themselves and integrate mental health awareness amongst the younger generation. We are thrilled to be apart of this program as we know Tyler would have held a special place in his heart for this type of learning experience.
Diversity Equity and Inclusion
These days it seems that everyone has a nicely worded DEI policy. But at Building Equal Bridges, The Tyler Gerth Foundation, diversity, equity, and inclusion are more than just words, they are the fabric of who we are, and the mission we live by.
We value and celebrate the varied mix of ideas, backgrounds and experiences – both the visible and invisible qualities that make you who you are. We intentionally cultivate our team and partners to reflect the wide and beautiful array of the human experience. We know we shine brightest and produce the best outcomes when people can bring their full selves to the work they do.
Driven by Tyler’s vision to build a more equitable world for the next generation, we provide
- Tangible work opportunities to advance the vision of a more just and inclusive world
- A safe and welcoming culture to participate in
- Equal opportunities without regard to labels (Including but may not be limited to race, religion, color, age, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, genetic disposition, neurodiversity, disability, or veteran status)
