We’re grateful for Gratitude, and their ongoing support for our team and mission. This year our staff participated in their Springboard Impact program to strengthen our monitoring and evaluation efforts, and they helped us scale the Peacebuilding Academy internationally to their network of global fellows. Stay tuned for an announcement in January on the 2025 cohort. Thank you, Gratitude Network!
And on the tenth day of our #12DaysofGratitude, our Network gave to us… MORE alumni highlights! 👩🎓 ❤️ We couldn’t get enough - after all, our Fellows and Alumni are the heart of what we do. So on Day 10, we’re taking a moment to celebrate two more of these amazing changemakers. 🌟 Lindsay McClain Opiyo is a 2020 Gratitude Network Fellow and the Executive Director at Generations For Peace USA, which empowers youth to lead sustainable change in communities experiencing conflict, through education in conflict transformation, (PS: Check out GFPUSA’s Peacebuilding Academy!) 🕊️ 🌱 Maia Ramarosandratana, 2021 Gratitude Network Fellow, is the Executive Director of Projet Jeune Leader, an organization that empowers young adolescents in Madagascar to make health, informed sexual health decisions from puberty into adulthood. 👏 🇲🇬 To help create more amazing stories, and fund more fellowships for changemakers like Lindsay and Maia, click the link to DONATE and help us continue growing our impact: https://lnkd.in/gj_E8EFa 🚀 🌍 #12days #12DaysofGratitude #endofyear #gratitudenetwork #nonprofit #withgratitude #mentoringprogram #nonprofitorganization #nonprofitforchildren #nonprofitnetworking #nonprofitstories
