People Investing in People

  • A SDOP grant made it possible for Mapuche Indians in Chile to sustain their heritage through the building of a cultural center. Watch video PDF icon
  • In Virginia, a neighborhood group used a SDOP grant to buy and renovate houses and, in turn, provide affordable housing for themselves and others in their community. Watch video PDF icon
  • Kentucky tobacco farmers, faced with not being able to rely on the tobacco market, used a SDOP grant to collectively learn new ways to sustain themselves economically. Watch video PDF icon
