Circle December 5, 2018 on your calendar! That’s the night you’ll be at The Edgewater, sipping cocktails, playing your favorite old school video games, dancing to live music and rubbing elbows with your tech and startup colleagues - all the while supporting the United Way of Dane County.
Your Tech Gala ticket includes a drink and dinner as well as an evening of fun, games, music and more! This isn’t your typical charity fundraiser event - it’s a fun gala with twist.
This event is open for anyone to attend - whether you work at a tech company, are an entrepreneur or freelancer, or just want to join in on the fun and help a good cause.
100% of your ticket purchase price will go directly to the partner charities, and the entire cost of your ticket is tax deductible. The event expenses are fully covered by our generous sponsors.
The goal of the Tech Gala is to engage our employees, family, and friends to come together to support a good cause, support the whole Madison community, and have a little fun in the process.
United Way of Dane County fights for education, financial stability and the health of everyone living in Dane County. We are committed to the vision of a Dane County where everyone can succeed in school, work and life. To facilitate this, we follow our community’s Agenda for Change, six goals focused on three priority areas of Education, Income and Health – the building blocks of a stable life. Through strategic partnerships and collaborative work, we are bringing the many voices of Dane County around a neutral table to find common ground and make measurable progress, while providing organizations and individuals the opportunity to give, advocate and volunteer to change lives in Dane County.
