EVENT DETAILS |
The Pursuit Bash Annual Gala celebrates our impact & growing community of Fellows, partners, funders, & volunteers.
Join us on June 10th, 2024, at the Glasshouse NYC as we bring together the best in tech, business, impact, & philanthropy & honor industry leaders who embody our values.
Our mission is to create economic transformation. By training low-income adults to launch & advance careers as software engineers, we help our Fellows go from earning $18,000 to over $90,000 starting salary on average, adding an estimated $2M in lifetime earnings. Pursuit partners with leading companies like Blackstone, USV, Citi, Peloton, & Uber to employ Fellows in career-defining engineering roles & supports them with on-the-job training to ensure potential translates to performance. Since 2013, Pursuit has created ~$1B in total lifetime wage gains, creating lasting economic mobility that spans generations.
