This week features two guests, each representing a non-profit organization supporting GiveBig Washington. They’ll provide insights about the work they are doing in the community. The GiveBig site is open, and donations can be made with the big focus on May 7 and 8.
In this second half: Corinna Krauskopf serves on the board of "Architects Without Borders", a locally based nonprofit that is almost entirely volunteer led and run. Architects without Borders provides Pro Bono services to underserved communities and organizations everywhere. Corinna tells us of their work with the Rainier Beach Action Coalition and support for building a Food Innovation Center for the town populus. And the work is also international. A project in Lima, Peru has worked with the local population to create a Fog Water Farm, which harvests fog to provide clean water. As water scarcity continues to be a major challenge worldwide, this is a huge innovation.
