Pitch10, Next Generation United’s marquee event, bring together 10 Western New York-based organizations to compete – Shark Tank-style – for a total of $50,000 in grants to further activate their missions. And YOU vote to determine who wins.

Your ticket includes 2 Pitch votes and a drink ticket (or 2 if you are an NGU Member).
