Kate Hanisian and Ramsey Ford are working in southern India to create an international design fellowship program that would link designers to communities, working on design related solutions to better standards of living for those around the world who need those services the most. They have an opportunity to compete for a $10,000 grant through the Nau ”Grant for Change” competition that could be applied directly to the placement of design fellows with social sector organizations.

Kate and Ramsey were a part of our house church for a couple years before moving to India, and we were immensely blessed by their presence. They are brilliantly alive with the love of God and full of compassion for others….and they’re pretty dang smart. If I could vote for their initiative over and over again all day I would, because I trust that beautiful things will come from their efforts and skills. Since I can not, I wanted to ask y’all to take a moment, read a little about their work and consider casting your vote for their cause. Voting is open only til July 6th, so there’s not much time left.

It’s super easy and quick. Here’s how it works:

1 .Go HERE
2 .Read our short overview.
3 .Click “vote/share” .
4. Click on “vote for this nominee”. (you will be asked to register, it only takes a few seconds.)

Thank you!
