“At bladestack.io, our mission extends far beyond the networks and systems we defend,” said Bhanu Jagasia, Founder and CEO of bladestack.io. “We believe the companies that protect critical infrastructure also carry a responsibility to protect and uplift the communities around them. When we learned about Villa’s mission and the incredible work Kristen and her team are doing for mothers in our region, sponsoring this event in full was an easy decision. Supporting mothers means supporting families, and supporting families means strengthening the foundation of our community.”
The sponsorship supports Villa Advocacy Group’s broader vision of launching a permanent “Postpartum Pantry” at its Dumfries hub, where mothers in need will be able to receive essential postpartum and baby items on an ongoing basis.
“We are incredibly grateful to bladestack.io for their generous, full sponsorship of our 5th Anniversary event,” said Kristen Guizani, Founder and CEO of Villa Advocacy Group, Inc. “Their support allowed us to celebrate five years of serving mothers in a meaningful way and gave more than 100 families the essentials, connection, and encouragement they deserve.
