Last Year’s Bootstrap Bash Returns on January 31
Last year’s wildly successful Bootstrap Bash recurs in just days. For ticket
information for the Bash on January 31 go to launchhouse.com/2015-bootstrapbash.
Proceeds benefit the LaunchHouse Institute’s entrepreneurial programming
and educational initiatives for
Cleveland-area students.
The event will be at Shaker
LaunchHouse, 3558 Lee Road,
providing guests with an
opportunity to interact with all areas of the LaunchHouse Institute. Guests can enjoy a
strolling dinner, dance the night away with live music, and browse a variety of raffle and
silent auction items donated by local businesses.
Expect to meet high school student-entrepreneurs showcasing the businesses they
launched during the 2014 LightHouse Entrepreneurial Accelerator Program (LEAP), mingle
with interesting local entrepreneurs, and participate in fun entrepreneurial activities.
The LaunchHouse Institute is an initiative of the Shaker Heights Development
Corporation (SHDC), a community improvement 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation
created to help the City realize its strong vision for the future.
The mission of the SHDC is to enhance the commercial revitalization efforts of the
City of Shaker Heights in order to strengthen residential neighborhoods and diversify
the City’s tax base. SHDC envisions an enriched Shaker Heights community that
seamlessly blends our innovative history into a vibrant future by fostering entrepreneurial
opportunities and stimulating sustainable economic growth.
