Financing Healthy Food Options series
Posted by on April 24, 2011
Opportunity Finance Network is pleased to announce the launch of the CDFI Fund’s Financing Healthy Food Options series! The goal of this CDFI Fund-sponsored initiative is to bring greater access to healthy foods in low-income communities.
From June 2011–June 2012, OFN will offer eight free two-day workshops across the U.S. led by expert instructors who will share proven financing techniques across the healthy food continuum, including food production, food retail, and mid-tier food chain enterprises, such as distribution. Individual technical assistance and informational resources round out the program.
Registration for the first workshop in Philadelphia, PA on June 29–30 opens on April 12. More details about the program, including additional workshop topics and dates, are available at http://www.cdfifund.gov/healthy.
