Thank you, NYC.
We have much to be thankful for -- the week before Thanksgiving, 1500+ members of New York's tech community gathered at the State Armory for Raise Cache, a benefit for hackNY organized by Rebecca Zhou and Kane Sarhan.The event was a tremendous success and over $100,000 was raised for hackNY. The money will be used to continue to federate the next generation of hackers for the New York innovation community.It was great seeing the outpouring of support from the community and we are extremely thankful to those that contributed and helped make this happen. We got together some former hackNY fellows to say thanks.We'd like to thank the following for making this happen:The Raise Cache TeamBianca Campued, Brian Malkerson, Claire Knebl, Kane Sarhan, Karene Schloss, Kendall Brezinski, Mallory Blair, Meghan Grosso, Nolan Filter, Rachel Lin, Rebecca ZhouSponsorsRaptor, Squarespace, Nasdaq, Thread, Secondmarket, Eventbrite, Lot18, KPMG, Fashion GPS, Serve, MongoDB / 10Gen, Watchittoo, Greycroft Partners, IA Ventures, RRE Ventures, Softbank Capital, Silicon Valley Bank, Bread Alert, Insight Venture Partners, Square 1 Bank, Daily Worth, Workbridge Associates, Zelkova VenturesFashion BrandsRent the Runway, Bonobos, Bauble Bar, Shoptiques, Proper Cloth, Of A Kind , The Cools , Market Publique , Source4Style , 72Lux , Carrie Hammer , Quincy , chloe + isabel, Stylecaster , Edition 01 , Lineby, Edition 01, Rent the Runway, Quincy , Bauble Bar, Bauble Bar, Katherine Kwei, Life TieRaffle and AuctionBroodr, Movie Pass, Jetsetter, Join Bklyn, Join Bklyn, Svpply, Gin Lane, Pivotal Labs, General Assembly, Fashion Center, Microsoft, Fueled, Sail Thru, Projective Space, Warby Parker, NewsCred, Total Control, Uber, Gilt City, Gansevoort Gramercy, Jack Robie, Loom Decor, NYTM, Everything Butt Art, Fitted Fashion, Aha.Life, Life TiekModelsAlex Nelson, Alexa Von Tobel, Alexis Tryon, Amy Cao, Andrew Rasiej, Ashley Granata, Aubrey Sabala, Brooke Moreland, Caren Maio, Carol Han , Caroline Scheinfeld, Carrie Hamerslag, Carter Cleveland, Cezary Pietrzak, Chris Paik, Christina Cacioppo, Christina Wallace, Courtney Boyd Myers, Dan Herman, David Rodriguez, David Tisch, Erin Tao, Fred Wilson, Jessica Lawrence, Joe Yveoli, Jordan Cooper, Kathryn Minshew, Katia Beauchamp , Katie Hunt, Kevin Prentiss, Kristine Kubat, LauraZapata, Lilia DeGregory, Marissa Evans, Marissa Wilson, Matt Kochman, Matt Shampine, Maya Bartz, Megan Filipp, Melanie Moore, Mimi Nguyen, Nate Westheimer, Nihal Mehta, Nikhil Kalghatgi, Phil Thomas Di Giulio, Phin Barnes, Quinten Farmer, Rachel Sklar, Rameet Chawla, Reece Pacheco, Roger Ehrenberg, Sarah Kunst, Scott Carleton, Summer Rayne Oakes, Will PengHosting CommitteeAdam Rothenberg, Alan Chen, Alex Kirshbaum, Alex Taub, Amanda Peyton, Andrew Chen, Ari Goldberg, Brooke Moreland, Carter Cleveland, Chris Paik, Chris Wiggins, Christinia Cacioppo, David Goldberg, Evan Korth, James Wahba, Jason Baptiste, Kristen Ming, Matt Shampine, Michael Karnjanaprakorn, Mimi N, Nikhil Kalghtgi, Rachel Sklar, Richard Blakely, Steven Rojas, Vin Vacanti, Will Peng, Yuli Ziv, Bianca Campued, Mallory Blair, Amy Jain, Daniella Y, Alex Kirshbaum, Jesse Kirshbaum, Josh Weinstein-----------------------------------------Most of all, we'd like to thank you, NYC, for helping us keep the kids off the street (Wall Street).
