hehehehe.....Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg received Lola Omolola,
Chicago-based Nigerian founder of Facebook group, Females In Nigeria
(FIN) at Facebook Headquarters on Tuesday, June 6th.
Taking to his page, Zuckerberg wrote that he will be
meeting with Omolola and some administrators of top Facebook groups in
Chicago later this month for the first ever Facebook Communities Summit.
His full post below:
"I'm heading to Chicago later this month for our first ever
Facebook Communities Summit with a few hundred of our top Facebook
group admins.
For the past decade, Facebook has been focused on making
the world more open and connected -- and we're always going to keep
doing that. But now it's clear we have to do more. We also need to bring
people closer together and build common understanding. One of the best
ways to do that is by helping people build community, both in the
physical world and online.
I've written and talked about these themes throughout this
year -- especially in my community letter in February and at Harvard
Commencement last month. This summit will be the next chapter and we'll
discuss more of what we're building to empower community leaders to
bring the world closer together.
Over the past few weeks I've been meeting group admins
across the country who are building meaningful communities on Facebook
and will be at the summit.
This photo is with Lola, who lives in Chicago and is originally from Nigeria.
Two years ago, she founded a secret Facebook group called
Female IN, or FIN. It's a no-judgment space where more than a million
women come to talk about everything from marriage and sex to health
issues and work problems -- and it's helping end the culture of silence
that exists for women in some parts of the world.
