Great to see that after a fantastic fundraising campaign that saved The Armada Maps from export in late 2020 that we’re now able to put all 10 on public display for the very first time. #fundraising #heritage lnkd.in/emFp6cpF

Same Identity. New Channels. Even Bolder!
We are updating our communications, improved not too different: just a little friendlier.
WISH has become a place where female coaches come to explore, grow, and belong. So we're updating our look to be just as welcoming!
