TUGG is excited to announce that registration for Tech Gives Back is going strong and that signup for our Tech Ecosystem Celebration is now open! Tech Gives Back is a community wide volunteering day focused on bringing the technology community out to support great non-profits across the city.  This year, we have identified over a dozen projects throughout the city of Boston that need help and volunteers.  Projects include: planting gardens, working soup kitchens, cleaning parks, helping at inner city schools and painting community centers, among others, in the city's under-resourced communities.

In addition, TUGG and our event sponsors invite you to join us at The Estate on September 21st from 5pm-10pm for an epic party!  Live it up on free drinks and food.  Dance to one of Boston's best DJs. Rub elbows with nearly 1000 other tech greats. Do all of this while celebrating our collective accomplishments and helping allocate funding to six amazing non-profits! 

 

Event participants already include: DataXu, Veracode, JumpTap, Bit 9, Paypal, HP Vertica, EMC, Atlas Venture, .406 Ventures, General Catalyst Partners, Polachi Executive Search, Lynx, Simple Tuition, Latham & Watkins, OpenView Partners, InsightSquared, Silicon Valley Bank, and many others!

Make a Donation
TUGG is committed to extending the philanthropic reach of the tech community (there's a reason our name is Technology Underwriting Greater Good!) but we need your help!  Buying a ticket is a great way to show your support for TUGG and our mission, but if you are able to pitch in a few extra dollars, or pull together a team to raise a bunch of cash, it goes a long way towards helping our non-profits get off the ground.  As a community, we're looking to raise over $150,000 for this event and nearly $1M this year so every dollar counts!

We look forward to your involvement and support as both Tech Gives Back and TUGG continue to grow!  If you have any questions, want to set your company up as an event sponsor, or want to be put on the wait list for Tech Gives Back's day of volunteering, let us know.
 
Sincerely,
