2021 Opportunity Finance Network Virtual Conference
From October 19-21, Working Solutions was proud to participate in a virtual conference hosted by the Opportunity Finance Network (OFN), our national association of CDFIs.
Each year, OFN hosts an inspiring conference for CDFI professionals, funders, and supporters. This year’s virtual conference included a presentation by Working Solutions CFO and OFN Board Member Christina Travers hosted by the CDFI Women’s Network.
Where others see obstacles, CDFIs like Working Solutions see opportunities to Finance Justice and Finance Change. In the words of OFN President & CEO Lisa Mensah, “CDFIs can help make justice achievable. CDFIs are financial first responders in crisis, and we’re lenders for longtime growth. With our allies working in social and racial justice, we can make recovery equitable and our nation fair and inclusive.”
