Help Me Help You Find Love.
Donation protected
I am a 30 year old female entrepreneur who is leading a tech startup in a man's world.
I have been doing many volunteer and philanthropic activities since my teenage years. I am now requesting a gofundme of $2000 to cover my expenses in attending a startup business accelerator program in SF, and to help buy me the time and space I need to put my full focus into fast-tracking my startup Neqtr and get it on the map - something that is crucial at this time.
What is Neqtr, and how will it help you find love?
This accelerator will provide full-time teachings from those who understand the tech world best - many from Silicon Valley. It will be incredibly intensive as well as supportive with others that fully grasp the tremendous efforts we are making to create this app. The over arching reason why we need to go to the accelerator is because it will not only be highly beneficial in our learnings, but will help us expand quicker to help us help more people, more non-profits, more communities, and of course more puppies.
With that being said, I must divorce my day job and marry my startup in a months time in order to take the 6-week program - I will have to take the plunge! Even though scary and risky, I feel it's the best next step for me at this time. I guess you could say, it's a beautiful challenge to embark on an adventure that is bigger than myself and do my part to change the world through technology and giving back.
I've proven my leadership abilities with many achievements to date: I have single-handedly put together a devoted team of tech developers who have been working for future earnings. I am also leading a team of marketing interns, have earned the support of several non-profits who are eager to work with our app, and created strategic alliances with other philanthropic ventures.
For the last 15 years I've been breaking the mold by doing gutsy out of the box humanitarian projects. When I was only 19, I went to live in Nepal for several months during a civil war, and there I created a documentary about the plight of slave children in Kathmandhu. I also helped raise money for impoverished nuns in the high Himalayas by doing a punk rock benefit show in the states. As a result they got a roof over their heads and toilets, which they couldn't be more appreciative of, and which I was shocked they didn't have in the first place when the monk's side did. This one act also started a women's movement in the towns below. Since then I've had a rich amount of entrepreneurial experience as well as worked in the fast-paced, high-pressure corporate marketing world .
Now I'm very excited to launch my new venture to get more people of my generation volunteering and finding quality love - something that can be hard to find these days with the current dating models in place.
