Introduction

This is a quick summary of the organisation. It talks, briefly, about its inception, structure, services and philosophy.

This is not the place for hyperbole (unless it is a relevant, and significant, direct quote from a referenced source) or advertising.

(Note that the Introduction is an untitled non-section that precedes the first section in the article.)
