About this grant
This grant will provide partial support to the Corporation for Enterprise Development’s 30th Anniversary Benefit Gala focused on "Creating the Future of Economic Opportunity", as well as its inaugural national innovation summit. The anniversary benefit gala will recognize "champions" of the asset-building and enterprise development sectors, while the innovation summit will spotlight opportunities for innovation and investment in economic development, financial restructuring, healthcare, community and workforce development, education, and youth. The events will take place on October 29, 2009, and will provide an opportunity for leaders from all sectors to discuss the best ways to improve financial security for all Americans, especially those from low- and moderate-income households. Headquartered in Washington, DC, the Corporation for Enterprise Development is a longtime grantee of the Mott Foundation.
