In Austin, TX on September 10, 2015, the SVP network will present their inaugural fast pitch competition, Philanthropitch International! Entrepreneurs from SVP cities all over the country will present 3-minute pitches about their organizations. SEED20 2015’s Dee Lanier, founder of UNCOMMEN, a mobile app dedicated to getting men more involved in family life, will present on behalf of SVP Charlotte. Having participated in SEED20, Lanier is experienced in this arena on a local scale but is ecstatic about stepping onto a larger, national stage.

“I’m still amazed that we were selected to represent Charlotte at this year’s Philanthropitch. It is such an honor to share the stage with the 9 other fabulous nonprofits and be a part of the entire 2015 class.  It’s humbling and thrilling at the same time.  We continue to cheer on and be cheered on by the other organizations here in Charlotte, and it will be a great experience to be exposed to the larger SVP community in Austin.” –Dee Lanier, Founder of UNCOMMEN

SVP is very proud to have Dee represent us at this fantastic event, and looks forward to hearing more news after his presentation. Best of luck, Dee!
