"Working with CLF on this project has proven their commitment to a 360-model to improve the resiliency of the Caribbean. If the roof of a school cannot withstand a hurricane, any other efforts would not lead to a fully resilient project. We fortified the school’s structure with reinforced walls, replaced the timber roof with steel, ensured the school could provide drinkable water, added an emergency generator and alternative solar power, incorporated disability access and emergency exits, all to ensure this school is fully equipped to be a hurricane shelter if and when a storm comes."

"Working at the intersection of gender, climate justice,
and agriculture is not typically understood by most funders, it’s either you’re one or the other. For far too long, funders have focused on improving agriculture productivity while negating the external impacts of climate change or gender-based violence that can affect individual farmers. The type of support CLF provides has allowed us to transform the support structures for women in agriculture while also validating our approach, opening doors for us to partner with new regional and global entities, like Hotel Chocolat."

"We are proud of how Rihanna continues to lift Bajans up through her music, philanthropy, advocacy, and fierce commitment to diversity and inclusion. We are also super proud of our OTT student Claire LaCorbiniere, who auditioned to be part of this monumental project and is one of the trio of girls confidently walking on Rihanna Drive in the video."
