From Ascribe Newsfeed: Effective immediately, the Community Technology Foundation will be officially named ZeroDivide. The Board of Directors made this decision in order to reflect the evolving strategy of the California-based foundation to help non-profit organizations overcome socio-economic barriers for communities in need. ZeroDivide provides funding to foster community enterprises, which use technology to strengthen low income, minority and others in underserved communities. "Whether the divides are social, economic, political or cultural, it is increasingly the case that technology can help overcome these divides, however, access to technology is just the starting point," said Tessie Guillermo, President and Chief Executive Officer. Focused on funding innovative, entrepreneurial, and transformative grants in the areas of civic engagement and community asset building, ZeroDivide will invest its philanthropic resources in a portfolio of information and communications technology and focus on three technology areas: wireless access, mobile applications, and social media/networking. For more information, please visit our web site at http://www.ZeroDivide.org. ZeroDivide operates a portfolio of innovative grantmaking, initiatives and leadership programs through an array of partnerships with nonprofits, philanthropy and corporations. Through engaged grantmaking, ZeroDivide invests in community enterprises that accelerate civic engagement and economic empowerment.
