You’re Invited Feb. 8 for an Evening of Solutions

Here we are in February with the days still short, snow still on the ground and temperatures still below freezing. Chances may be, the energy and resolve you had at the beginning of the year to create positive change in 2011 is ebbing.

That makes this month an ideal time to rekindle, gather, learn, share and creatively think about new solutions to advance lasting social change.

This Tuesday, Feb. 8, InCommons is proud to support and co-sponsor the second Ashoka Twin Cities Solutions Forum.

As an InCommons member, you’re invited to enjoy a one-hour live interview with Ashoka Fellows Conchy Bretos and Felipe Vergara, conducted by media personality Rick Kupchella. Exchange your perspective with these leaders and others in attendance at a reception to follow. This free event will be held at the Walker Art Center. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. The program begins at 7 p.m.

We hope you can join.

Space is limited, so reserve your spot at the Ashoka Solutions Forum. For more information, contact ashokatwincites@ashoka.org.
Other Solutions Forum sponsors are The John S. & James L. Knight Foundation and Maslon Edelman Borman & Brand, LLP.

About the Ashoka Fellows
Conchy Bretos developed MIA Consulting, an initiative for more autonomous elderly care, working with policy and public housing buildings in order to prevent low-income and disabled elderly from being forced into nursing homes against their will.
Recognizing the need for an efficient system to finance higher education, Felipe Vergara created Lumni and is introducing human capital contracts—an entirely new set of financial products—to draw private capital toward higher education.
