Through our first Innovators-in-Residence and Innovative Ideas submissions processes, we are excited to hear from friends both old and new. In fact, 44% of all online responses came from individuals who were not previously in CFED's orbit! We appreciate hearing from old friends--including policy, SEED, microenterprise and Assets Learning Conference partners and many others--who are sharing their innovative approaches. And we are gratified that our friends and our outreach have introduced us to so many new potential collaborators.

Whether you've had a relationship with CFED for years or just found out about us through the recent application and submission processes, please stay in touch through e-mail or this blog and share your thoughts on innovation. Stay tuned for announcements of the first group of Innovators-in-Residence and Innovative Ideas, coming in mid June! And don't forget to follow this space closely for updates on our Innovation Summit, to be held in D.C. in October. It will be a great opportunity for many of us to connect, share ideas and be inspired!
Please share your thoughts on innovative pursuits in this space--we look forward to getting to know you!
