As individual organizations emerge as strong agents of change in their communities, the next level of impact comes when they find each other and work together to leverage knowledge and experiences . This collaboration is the seed bed for innovation and scalable, transferable solutions.
Our most gratifying success is the development of networks that have linked communities together to carry on the valuable work we helped ignite and steward. We are committed to social sector network development to achieve the highest level of systematic change in every sector in which we work.
