Champions for Children’s Health

For over a century, the Mary Bridge Brigade, formerly the Tacoma Orthopedic Association (TOA), has boldly supported Mary Bridge Children’s. The Mary Bridge Brigade Legacy will support the mission of the Mary Bridge Brigade and continue to honor the work of the founding members.

The children of our community need their champions now more than ever before.

By including the Mary Bridge Brigade in your long-term charitable plans and becoming a part of the Brigade Legacy Society, you're making a lasting legacy that will positively impact the lives of countless children and their families for years to come.

WHO SHOULD JOIN?

For people who want to create a legacy beyond their lifetime, members of the Mary Bridge Brigade Legacy Society will build a fund to safeguard and advance children’s health in perpetuity.
