B.O.L.D. City Summit @ One Spark
B.O.L.D. City Summit was Project #21872 at this year's One Spark festival. It was an awesome experience of spreading awareness, making connections, and gaining resources to expand B.O.L.D. City Summit. We finished 28th out of 555 projects in votes. That's a total of 580 votes! This won us over $700 of crowd funds.
B.O.L.D. City Summit beat out the other 555 projects to win the $5,000 Jacksonville Award. The Jacksonville Award is new to One Spark 2015 and is a $5,000 award for the Creator Project that promises to have the greatest overall impact on Jacksonville, FL. This will be awarded by a special panel of jurors.
The funds raised at One Spark will be used to sustain our alumni network and continue the summit for years to come.
