One the many benefits of joining the recently formed Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network of Colorado Board is having the opportunity to meet Libby. She is a great contributor to the board, CU, the State and the entrepreneurial community. She was a founder of Wild Oats and still plays a major role in the health food industry as a mentor and angel investor. She also has a cool philanthropic pursuit named the Philanthropiece Foundation. It was originally formed in 1997 as the Wild Oats Community Foundation, providing low cost holistic health care and education services to needy neighborhoods in the United States and in addition to operating the Wellness Centers, the foundation has been engaged in the community of Boulder, Colorado, collaborating on several educational and community initiatives.

Libby gives a lot of her time as she currently chairs the Center for the Advancement of Sustainable Enterprise (CASE) at Colorado State University, and actively serves on advisory boards for the University of Colorado School of Law, Silicon Flatiron Center’s Entrepreneurship Initiatives at the University of Colorado, and Justice & Empowerment Initiatives, in addition to the Blackstone effort.

Cool lady - check out her activities to better the State and the world.
