Friends,

I hope all is well. On September 27th from 6:30-8:30 at the Willard, Venture for America is partnering with Startup DC on Entreprelooza, which raises awareness of non-profits whose missions are related to entrepreneurship.  This party will mix our regional entrepreneurs with political power players.

A $25 donation to VFA at http://ventureforamerica.org/entreprelooza gets you into this beautiful space for a private reception with VFA's founder Andrew Yang and board members, as well as cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. Companies can donate $1,000 for ten tickets to the event.  Contributions are tax deductible.

In addition, some recent exciting news.  Over the previous two weeks, Venture for America served as a sponsor for the Huffington Post/NBC/Microsoft What is Working Entrepreneurship Expo at both the RNC and DNC.  Andrew Yang participated on a panel that included Gene Sperling (National Economic Council Director), Julian Castro (San Antonio Mayor and Democratic keynote speaker), will.i.am, Rosario Dawson, Huffington Post Editor-in-Chief Arianna Huffington, and moderated by Tom Brokaw.  Here is Andrew's post panel interview http://videos.huffingtonpost.com/andrew-yang-venture-for-america-517470785.  Thanks!

Brandon
