WHY WE PARDI
Each year we Pardi to raise proceeds to expose Black and Brown communities to opportunities in technology. We are focused on ensuring our community is not left behind in the digital economy.
Through your contributions to the ball, you help eliminate barriers that make it harder for our community to receive access to opportunities in technology through support of education and entrepreneurship.
This year we Pardi to help fund Black Founders looking to leverage tech to grow their business!
Through an application process, 5 Indy based Black Entrepreneurs will be selected to pitch their business at the inaugural Pardi Gras Pitch Pardi hosted by Be Nimble Foundation where they each will compete for the Top 3 Cash Prizes from the Pardi Gras proceeds.
The Grand Prize is $10,000 followed by $5000 for the Runner Up and $2500 for the 2nd Runner Up.
