Wednesday, April 28th, we joined the NFTE program for its annual Dare to Dream Gala at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in DC, this year titled MIinB ( Making It in Busines)
Since 1987 NFTE, Network for Teacing Entrepreneurship, has been serving the young community in classrooms since 1992 and boasts over 22,000 local NFTE graduates in the area. It has provided entrepreneurail education to more than 280,000 youth from low-income communities in 21 states and 12 countries. The event honored entrepeneurs such as Blackboard Inc. Prez and CEO Michel Chasen, Alperner Family Foundation's President Patty Alpern, and U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. Chris Gardner, self-made millionaire, entrepreneur, and philanthropist was the keynote speaker of the event, you might recognize his name from The Pursuit of Happiness, the motion picture based on his life.
