Help Nathalie Support Underserved Inventors!

About Me

It is my belief that entrepreneurship and creativity are key attributes that move our society forward. I like to think that everyone can better themselves and make a difference if given the opportunity. I support various non-profit organizations that share this very vision. I feel it is essential to help the next generation to reach their best potential as it will benefit all.

About Push For Entrepreneurship

The Push For Entrepreneurship Event was designed to raise funds for underserved youth in Bridgeport through the power of fitness. All funds raised go directly to support K-12 Invention Convention programs in some of Connecticut's most in-need school districts. All donations are tax deductible.

If you'd like to support the Push For Entrepreneurship fundraiser, you can either donate directly or register as a fundraiser (a "pusher"), and raise funds directly for October 16, when you will do two hours of exercise to support young inventors in the state.

• Who. Hundreds of parents, fitness buffs, educators, inventors, and community supporters who believe in the importance of young inventors and/or heathy living.
• What. Doing two hours of exercise in a celebration of young ingenuity and a commitment to supporting students without ready access to innovation programs.
• Where. Wakeman Boys and Girls Club 385 Center St Southport, CT 06890
• When. October 16, from 9am EST to 1pm EST.
• Why. Because EVERY child deserves to be an inventor, and to learn that they have the power to change the world.
• How. When a community comes together to support those who go without, anything is possible.
