Profile Information

Have you read "The Blue Sweater?"
No
Why do you want to be a part of this community?
I just heard Ms. Novogratz on NPR's Speaking of Faith and am fascinated with the business model of her company Acumen and want to learn more about social entrepreneurialism. It's very inspiring.
How do you think you can best help Acumen Fund?
Spread the word, Web Development
What's your URL? (blog or company or passion)
http://www.fertilegroundusa.com
This is your spot to share more about who you are so others can connect with you: share a little more about where you work or went to school, and other ways to reach you (Twitter ID, ICQ, etc.)
I have a blog called Fertile Ground USA which is about the world of sustainable agriculture. The site is being relaunched and I will soon be covering enterpreneurial activities in sustainable farming in the US. I am now researching projects to write about in the future. Would love suggestions.
Are you currently a student?
No

Hi Melissa - Welcome to the community site! I work at Acumen Fund and wanted to introduce myself so you have someone you can go to if you ever have any questions. We're thrilled that you're here and that you found us through the Speaking of Faith interview. I'm a big fan of the program myself. Here's a group you might be interested on our community site. It's a sustainable agriculture group so might be just what you're looking for. Some interesting discussion happening there:

Also, depending on your comfort level, it would be fantastic if you would consider adding a photo to your profile so others can get to know and connect with you easier.

Feel free to reach out to me anytime. Thanks again for joining!

James
