Before they're gone

Only 17 of Paul's bridges are left.

The giveaway is free and you never have to buy one to enter. But when these are gone, they're gone. If one is meant for you, don't wait. Bring it home now.

Bring home a bridge

In the spring of 2026, Paul died by suicide. This giveaway puts one of his handmade bridges into someone's hands, stands with the family he left behind, and carries his mission forward with our whole community behind it: pull people back from the edge before it's too late.

“What the enemy meant for evil, the Lord turns into beauty from ashes.”

When the last bridge sells, the mission doesn't end.

Paul made every bridge by hand. When the last of his finds a home, the inventory is gone. But the grieving pet owners don't stop arriving. The families don't stop needing something to hold.

We're looking for the next maker. A woodworker. A painter. A welder. A potter. A photographer. An illustrator. A sculptor. An artist of any medium who can build something a family keeps on their mantle for twenty years. You don't have to be Paul. Nobody can be. You can be the next chapter, under your own name, your own style, your own hands.

Photographers, illustrators, metalworkers, glass artists, weavers. The medium doesn't matter. The grief doesn't pick a form. Whatever you make, if it can carry someone's love for the animal they lost, this door is yours.
