Education. It's critical to the growth and development of our children. It's what fosters well-rounded youth, great neighborhoods and bright horizons. It's what inspires the Atlanta office to do more than just build vibrant retail centers.

Build A Bridge is an education initiative created by North American Properties to help improve schools in the communities we serve. During the development phase of our shopping centers, we form corporate partnerships with schools in need and contribute resources that make a difference in children's education. This relationship creates the roadmap for our tenants' active involvement in the program.

A Bridge to the Community
Recognizing our opportunity to leave a lasting, positive impact, North American Properties becomes a vital contributor to communities by embracing the pursuit of excellence in education. So, while the shopping center is under construction, North American also takes the time to invest in the community through education.
A Bridge to the Children
Build A Bridge gives North American the opportunity to touch the lives of our future leaders and, hopefully, inspire them to achieve great things. Based on the needs of each school, the Atlanta office contributes in various ways, including tutoring, classroom participation, financial aid and various school improvements.

A Bridge to the Future
North American shares the passion for positive change with its retail partners and encourages them to influence the lives of children in their own way. Build A Bridge becomes the growing legacy of North American's shopping center as retailers and restaurants continue an education connection long after the shopping center is built.

What begins with the spark of just one corporate partnership, flourishes into an outreach program backed by national retailers and local businesses alike.
