The 24th Annual TechBridge Digital Ball was a night to remember! From an electrifying welcome by Tom Riles to thrilling live and silent auctions, the evening was packed with innovation, networking, and impactful fundraising. The table challenge added a competitive edge, helping us raise significant funds for our Technology Career Program. We also celebrated excellence with awards for Dana Priest as the Vish M Narendra TCP Graduate of Excellence Honoree and Jay Bailey as the TechBridge Community Leader Award, recognizing their remarkable contributions to the community. The energy in the room was palpable as guests connected, shared stories, and supported our four pillars including hunger, homelessness, social justice and workforce development. Together we raised more than $190,000 at the event to support our mission to break the cycle of generational poverty.

The Power of Connection was on display in big and bold ways at the 2024 Digital Ball! Jay Bailey's inspiring post about the development of Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs—a transformative initiative made possible through the powerful connection between RICE and TechBridge, is a shining example of how connections can create social impact, perfectly embodying the theme of the recent 2024 Digital Ball. As we prepare to celebrate 25 years of innovation and collaboration next year, the story of RICE reminds us of the incredible things that happen when organizations unite for a common goal. Together, we’re not just developing technology—we’re building brighter futures. Join us in reflecting on the journey so far, and let’s look forward to what we can achieve in the next 25 years! #DigitalBall2024 #TechBridge #25YearsStrong #PowerOfConnection #EmpoweringCommunities
