+# Re-Tooling the Capital Magnets Loan Fund Process
+
+This README comprises the documentation 
+for a proof of concept for an alternative to the current 
+set of procedures for adjudicating grants for the 
+Capital Magnets Loan Fund (CMF) 
+of the Florida Community Loan Fund (FCLF), 
+working with the Central Florida Foundation (CFF). 
+
+It addresses the problem laid out in a DataDive workflow called
+*Expanding and Improving FCLF’s Capital Magnets Loan Fund Process and Tooling*, 
+which is Workstream 1 of the 
+project called
+*Supporting the development of affordable and attainable housing solutions in Florida by unlocking stakeholder knowledge and capacity*.
+The project brief for this DataDive event is available on 
+[Google Docs](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FWQMIgPJqb0235BIkKMO6CU1JqtRGN7CnQolky6jmOo/edit). 
+The aim of the project is to propose an alternative set of procedures for the 
+current set of manual procedures 
+using the CMF 
+[Project Tracking and Scenario Tool](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qOzzP9Gyhl86o2OPK1iCVCdhrFu_WRgF/edit#gid=284374061). 
+A Jupyter notebook for the project is also available [here](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/18HLICUsACDZUJ6UelMzQCZCliIZ1OZuE?usp=sharing#scrollTo=rXb7ddlAl-ER), 
+which contains a preliminary outline of the project.
+The group also maintained contact through a Slack channel called
+[proj-housing](https://app.slack.com/client/T05U65KU6TV/C05U6945M8S).
