WIT CONNECT is one of the premier fundraising and networking events of the year with over 800 top level executives in the technology field that come to further focus on the mission of WIT. It is an evening of giving back. We have raised over $3.2 million to support the development of young girls and the advancement of women in STEAM through our highly anticipated Executive Auction. At this event we highlight our WIT Girls and WIT Campus young women along with the impact WIT programs has had on their advancement in STEAM. This evening includes awarding over $180k in scholarship awards.
