Have unused land on your church property? REEF has partnered with the General Council on Finance and Administration (GCFA) to turn it into something meaningful and profitable. REEF transforms open urban spaces into multi-purpose places by adding new, revenue-generating applications to unused real estate.

Examples of our applications include: Micro-healthcare clinics that make care more accessible; Delivery kitchens that feed the community and help restaurants expand; and Micro-fulfillment centers that promote greener delivery methods.
