“As a social worker and special education teacher, we founded Split Rail on the principles of social responsibility. We were excited to learn about the Fair Finance Fund and we are very appreciative to be partnering with a funder with aligned values. The financial and mentorship support from the Fair Finance Fund will be transformational to Split Rail’s next phase of growth.”
