Raising the
Tide of Life
COMMUNITY FARMING IS THE FUTURE
The world’s most extraordinary island nation is made up of 1200 islands and 200 communities, and its nutrient-rich lagoons and underutilized workforce remain its largest untapped resources.
We hope to grow our business and create jobs in line with the country’s rich fishing heritage. This gives people dignity, upholds tradition, and develops the values, skills, and income to transform their lives.

DONATED PICNIC

BluBridge and the Fonadhoo Island Council selected and developed the island’s first picnic and swim area. We engaged the community in the preparation work, which deepened our relationships with them and gave them a sense of ownership in the project.
