    🌟 It's been a big year for the Community Funding Accelerator (CFA) so far! Thanks to its support, Indiana’s Heartland BioWorks will receive $51 million and Colorado’s Elevate Quantum will receive $41 million through the federal Tech Hubs program, facilitated by the U.S. Economic Development Administration. Both projects propose cultivating a deep talent pipeline that begins in K-12 schools, connecting the next generation of technology leaders to hands-on learning opportunities and potential employers. With a focus on K-12 education and career-connected learning, the CFA has been instrumental in identifying relevant grant opportunities, building coalitions, and providing deep technical assistance to submit and implement winning proposals. 🔗 Learn more about how, together, we're empowering communities to unlock federal funding and create lasting, positive outcomes 👉 https://lnkd.in/d42Z8-7Q
