It’s about supporting founders who have historically been #underserved and giving them the #access to resources, mentorship, #capital and networks, needed to succeed. 💡 Every contribution helps open doors to possibilities that transforms the future of tech, and contributes to strengthening our economy. When you give to Access Mode—you’re investing in the next generation of exceptional tech innovators. 🎯 Let’s make October 10th a 10/10 day for #philanthropy!
