David thought he knew his neighbourhood. Then he became a trust node.
“The first month, I distributed to four people. I knew none of their stories. By the third month, I knew all of them — and they knew each other.”
David's node now runs a monthly “I Was Here” walk, where members check in at local businesses that received settlements. It has become the most attended event in his region.
Stories like this happen every month.
