If you’re a fan of entrepreneurship or enjoy helping youth, consider attending E CITY’s Ninth Annual Awareness Breakfast on Tuesday, April 13 for an opportunity to learn about E CITY and hear success stories from its students.

This year’s breakfast is at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, located at 777 St. Clair Ave. NE in Cleveland, and Tuesday, April 6 is the deadline to register. The featured speaker is Deborah D. Hoover, president of the Burton D. Morgan Foundation, and products from E CITY students will be available to purchase.

Since 2002, thunder::tech has been a supporter of E CITY, which is a nonprofit that represents Entrepreneurship: Connecting, Inspiring and Teaching Youth. E CITY delivers a program that teaches students entrepreneurial, business and life skills to enable economic independence. The program is offered to greater Cleveland and Akron youth through in-school, after school and summer BizCamp formats.

We have been a pro bono marketing partner with E CITY for several years because of our belief in the organization’s mission. At this year’s breakfast, take a look at the posters and programs created by the thunder::tech team.

Our staff has witnessed firsthand the difference that this program has made in the lives of hundreds of inner city students. E CITY staff recently conducted a survey and found that 84 percent of their alumni have entered or already completed their college education!

E CITY makes a difference and thunder::tech is proud to be a part of their efforts. Register today and you can be a part of it too.
