Indigo is inspired by the work of organizations that share in its mission, vision and values. We know that not one organization can make substantial and sustainable change on its own. For that reason, and more, we value collaboration and change through collective impact and knowledge sharing. Below are some resources that we utilize and that often inspire our work.
