FILM THAT EXPLAINS LEADER
We are Leader Sweden!
Non-profit engagement is about people coming together around an idea and working together to achieve something they think is important. When this happens, the conditions for sustainable and attractive areas are created. But even if the cooperation and the will to develop are there, the money may not always be there. Then Leader can be an opportunity.
