September and October were big months for two members of the Innovation Portfolio: Innovative Idea Champions Henry Red Cloud and Tom Foley. Both innovators were in Washington, DC to participate in CFED’s 2010 Assets Learning Conference in late September by presenting their work in the Innovation Marketplace and then were off to receive distinguishing awards recognizing their leadership in expanding economic opportunity for underserved populations.

On September 30, Henry (right) was in New York City to receive the Nuclear-Free Future Award for his work in manufacturing renewable energy equipment for Native American reservations. Soon after on October 11, Henry was in Los Angeles to receive the 2010 Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC) Annual Innovations Award for the Clean Energy American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Projects category.

On October 19, Tom (left) was back in Washington, DC to receive the National Disability Institute's (NDI) Richard Keeling Leadership Award for his leadership in promoting and developing asset-building outreach, education and resources for people with disabilities. Tom received the award at NDI's Real Economic Impact Tour Celebration event at the National Press Club.
