To be included alongside all the incredible organizations across the country that are finalists for these awards, and to be selected by such an important social organization as CharityVillage truly validates what we collectively set out to do when we launched the lab in 2018.” “This honour really goes to all our amazing community partners across the city, our immensely talented interns and students, and the incredible funders and supporters who make what we do possible, for all of them we are forever thankful” Holmes said.
