Quotes

"When you take a leadership position and leverage your assets, your resources, you can get people to come along the journey to make a difference." - Sekou

The biggest funders in the social sector can tell their grantees to focus on equity. Some of them are currently re-evaluating their own practices and realizing they might be part of the problem. - Cordell


Stay committed and determined by following your own values and keep working hard with courage, even when you feel tired. - Dr. Colette
