Meet SFGI

SFGI’s work is made possible by the goodwill of those who contribute their expertise pro bono — interns, technical advisors, global advisors, board of directors, and chief executive officer. Our next phase of growth includes securing the resources needed to compensate this team and strengthen SFGI’s long‑term capacity.
