Posse Bay Area Power of 10 Event Raises Nearly $300k

Last October, Posse Bay Area celebrated 10 years at its annual Power of 10 event at the historic Olympic Club, located in San Francisco’s Union Square district. The event brought together longstanding and new members of the Posse community and raised a record $300k.

“The best-ever Power of 10,” says Advisory Board Chair Dave Korol. “So fun and energizing.”

Guests were treated to a program led by Dave and Posse President and Founder Deborah Bial. The evening culminated in a moving speech by Posse alum Nneoma Gansallo. A Bucknell University graduate who is now an associate at premier law firm Perkins Coie, Gansallo’s remarks about Posse’s impact in her life had the audience in the room feeling inspired.

“Posse helped me learn about how to be a leader in the classroom and on campus – giving me the keys to success on how to navigate and excel in college. Little did I know that Posse was also equipping me to excel in my future professional and legal career as well. Posse has been my village that encouraged me and continues to follow me in every new endeavor,” said Nneoma.

Thank you to sponsors Deloitte, EY, Dodge & Cox, the Gruber Family Foundation, the John Kruger Charitable Fund, Beth & Andrew Daecher, Jonathan Meyer and Laird North Weatherby, and to all the event captains and Advisory Board members who made last year’s Power of 10 a success.
