Project Description

Project Description

Building a Better City, One Idea at a Time Boco is a crowdfunding platform that supports designers based in Bogota who want to offer insights for the city’s emerging issues. Projects will be funded and celebrated both online and through fundraising events. We want to create a community of active citizens who recognize that real impact can only be achieved by doing.
