The Digital Ball, our primary fundraiser, is Saturday, April 28, 2012. The Ball provides CIOs, technology suppliers and other interested parties a unique opportunity to celebrate the advancement of technology within the nonprofit community.

• Improve your company's visibility in a crowded field, meet local CIOs, and network with peers and business partners 
• Jumpstart relationships beyond buyer and seller with other NPower supporters 
• Help nonprofits harness the power of technology, assuring a stronger, better community for us all 
• Entertain clients or reward employees with a night of exciting entertainment and stimulating company

With extensive business networking, fantastic entertainment, recognition of a nonprofit technology achievement, and an after party to get even a CIO dancing, the Digital Ball is an evening on the "must list" for the technology community.
