$1M BridgeBuilder™ 2019 Top Ideas | People on the Move

GHR Foundation and OpenIDEO are thrilled to announce the BridgeBuilder 2019 Top Ideas!

​The 2019 Top Ideas are innovative solutions working to address the urgent and emergent needs of people on the move.

They will receive seed funding and post-Challenge support from GHR, as well as connection opportunities with other BridgeBuilders and OpenIDEO.
