Meet Lindsey Fielder-Cook and her daughter Anna.

Lindsey works on the 'Human Impacts of Climate Change' at @QuakerUNOffice in Geneva.

Anyone who has the pleasure of knowing Lindsey, knows she lives out our #Quaker values, so we're not surprised their family #WQD2020 sign! ✨

What does being a #Quaker mean to you?

Meet our wonderful @FWCCWorldOffice Treasurer, Fenwick, and his partner Jenny, sharing their @WorldQuakerDay sign for this Sunday.
