HOW IT CAME TO BE

First on the list for the new building.

01

The Need

CFNEA decided to shift its headquarters to a new campus.

02

The Vision

One of their first requests for that new campus was a Sacred Place — not an addition once the building was finished, but part of what the headquarters was for. CFNEA is a longstanding Nature Sacred partner operating a program with 18 Sacred Places and their Firesouls in its network.
