The Blue Sweater



Check out this interview with the author of The Blue Sweater: Bridging the Gap between Rich and Poor in an Interconnected World and founder/CEO of the Acumen Fund, Jacqueline Novogratz.

Amazing story about the sweater!

Amazing ideas about changing the world!

Acumen Fund, a non-profit global venture fund that uses entrepreneurial approaches to solve the problems of global poverty, makes critical capital investments designed to change things for the better among the poorest people on planet Earth.

Fascinating stuff!

Lessons here for urban investors and human and community developers.
