Where this started
The help already existed. Someone just had to connect it.
It started with a school and a list of what the children needed.
Before Colink Venture, I worked as a community liaison. My job was to find outside resources that would help the children at my school thrive: organizations that could bring free dental vans or mammogram vans into a community, and partners who could open doors a school could not open alone.
What I learned is that most communities are not short on good organizations. They are short on introductions. Colink Venture exists to make those introductions easier to find, and easier to build on.
