Stitch members can become Community Champions by helping to contribute to growing the community in their own local area as part of the Stitch Pioneer Program.
The Community Pioneer Program provides support, encouragement, and guidance to community Pioneers to help them grow the community in their local areas. The program has been designed to be not only rewarding, but also fun! Many of our Pioneers tell us they have built life-long friendships through the program.
