Reflecting on 2020: One Good Thing
As 2020 comes to a close, we asked members of the WEPOWER team to reflect on their year and describe one good thing that came out of the incredibly challenging year we all just experienced. We chose to end the year reflecting on what we have come to appreciate more than ever.
