Civic Life

Innovation and social equity foster a thriving and vibrant society.

We support work that advances democracy, informs the public, and holds legislators accountable to citizens. We believe in enhancing public land and green spaces to foster social connection and wellbeing, and in the power of youth and communities engaging in the design these spaces.
