Participants can meet and work with others who have similar interests and purpose, using and growing their skills and knowledge, build connections and network with others while actively participating in tangible solutions. For groups and workplaces, this is also a wonderful chance to boost morale, foster teamwork, and promote your company’s visibility in the community.
