OUR MISSION
The “Bridge to the People” Foundation was established to conduct and finance scientific research in the following areas: how playing bridge prevents dementia, strengthens the immune system and improves school performance. Subsequent research results will be published and will also be used to promote the game of bridge.
EDUCATIONAL ADVANTAGES
Many reports confirm the educational benefits of playing bridge. School-age children who play bridge perform better on all tests, not only in math, but also in other subjects.
Bridge teaches:
- cooperation in pairs and teams,
- logical thinking and reasoning,
- building and changing strategies based on probability.
PLAYING BRIDGE
Preliminary research has confirmed the following benefits of playing bridge:
- 75% lower against of developing Alzheimer’s disease,
- greater production of CD-4 positive lymphocytes responsible for fighting viruses
Both results should be confirmed in a larger study group, and this is what we intend to investigate.
BRIDGE 60+
We will join the BRIDGE 60+ program dedicated to older people, aimed at preventing dementia and social isolation. A program that has so far encouraged over 10,000 people at almost 340 points in Poland to play bridge in special centers.
We also teach bridge at Alzheimer’s centers.
People who have mild cognitive impairment perform unexpectedly well. This may be a new therapy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s.
On our website you will find everything about research, its results and ways to support it.
