II. THANK YOUS
A special thank you to our TakingITGlobal team members for their leadership and guidance in creating a global
community of creative youth organizations. We would also like to thank the program guests and mentors for
inspiring a global network of young creatives as they continue on their creative journey.
TakingITGlobal would also like to thank Adobe for their partnership in supporting this global
creative youth network through the Adobe Creativity Grants program. And last but not least, we
would like to thank all of the 240 of organizations who are paving the pathway in creating a more
accessible and equitable creative industry.
