principle of bold focus. While we are fortunate to
have strong stewardship and are right on course, we

valued members, and stakeholders. We are leaning
into this vision more heavily than ever, understanding
that it is a crucial step towards fulfilling our ultimate
purpose. (More to come on this soon)

is where we believe our future success lies.
