The task of putting on Fort Collins Startup Week is truely MONUMENTAL! We are lucky to have a strong community giving time, expertise, and a lot of love to make it happen. But any great community needs a leader, someone driving the bus, steering efforts in the right direction, and generally being the unwavering cheerleader. Our leader is Andrew Schneider.

Without Andrew, the beauty and impact of FCSW would not have come to fruition. Planning and executing this event has been a full time job for months, and he has done all this work for free. Now is our opportunity to gather our collective resource and collect some funds to pay Andrew and thank him for his deep commitment to the success of FCSW. We can't possibly raise what he's really worth, but every little bit counts in our show of love and support for such a dedicated leader!
