Partners

Without the investment from an amazing community of funders, sponsors, partners and supporters, we would have not been able to bring the project this far. Beyond financial contributions, our partners are helping us develop more resilient communities through their ideas, advice, volunteer efforts, in-kind assistance and other forms of support.
