Today the National Crowdfunding Association, www.NLCFA.org , launched its nationwide initiative: Women in Crowdfunding to open the doors of new financing and job opportunities to women coast to coast. "In my experience with crowdfunding, women 'just get it' better than men do," said David Marlett, Executive Director of the NLCFA. "Crowdfunding at its heart is people coming together to invest in their community and their fellow citizens, for the advancement of the greater good. I apologize in advance to my competitive-at-all-costs gender, but women have a natural and immediate affinity to crowdfunding and I expect women will lead the way in many respects."
Heading the initiative is NLCFA founding member CrowdFundingLIVE, www.CrowdFundingLIVE.com , a women-owned crowdfunding platform and events firm based virtually in California, Nevada and Washington, focusing and fostering women in business. CFL founder and partner, Debe Fennell said, "This form of direct investment is revolutionary, and informing women about this opportunity is part of our mission, and the mission of Women in Crowdfunding. We will be providing an arena of support, mentoring, education and networking about crowdfunding for women so they can share ideas, get involved, use crowdfunding for the benefit of themselves, their families and communities, and prosper on a more even playing field."
