Last night’s tradeshow was something special, and it truly took a village to make it happen.

Thank you to our mentors for walking alongside our students all year, pushing them, supporting them, and being that steady support they could count on.

Thank you to our investors for giving our students the opportunity to turn their ideas into something real.

Thank you to our guest speakers and the businesses who welcomed us throughout the year. You gave our students the knowledge and perspective they needed to build their businesses.

Thank you to our board for your guidance and commitment to this program.

And thank you to the VCHS and OKAW staff for stepping in to help with setup.

We had a fantastic evening. More importantly, our students walked away knowing their community truly cares about them.

It’s amazing what can happen when everyone comes together.
