January
1, 2008- The fourth annual Team Business Fundraising Event will
take place Saturday, April 26, 2008 and we are again seeking
corporate sponsors. Every tax-deductible contribution to
the Women in Technology Education Foundation (a 501c3 organization)
will not only provide scholarships for girls to attend, but will
also provide much needed funding to support ongoing academic and
community programs that engage girls in grades 4-12 in technology
and computer-related learning, especially in disadvantaged communities.
Since our inception in 2000, Girls In Technology has supported over
400 girls in a variety of educational and mentoring programs, and
we have aggressive plans to continue to increase our impact in the
community in the coming year. Sponsorship donations give the girls
the hands-on business experience not available to them through the
typical academic curriculum and make a difference in a girl’s
future; which in turn makes a difference to our region’s workforce
preparedness. Please consider supporting this event by sponsoring
a table for the girls or underwriting a portion
of the cost of the event. Sponsorship levels include:
