Our interest in Bonfire was kindled over time. We were initially impressed at how seriously they took PledgeLA and their commitment to report diversity, equity and inclusion metrics, as indicated by their completion rate of Pluto DEI Stories. When we met Jen, we quickly realized she was one of the few people who really understood the value of what we were trying to do, and how large of a market we were going after (and how we hoped to grow the market for everyone).

Since partnering, the Bonfire team has demonstrated their deep commitment to helping us address a broad range of challenges and opportunities.
