PORTLAND, Ore. - [Operation Code’s](https://www.operationcode.org) Veteran’s Day Benefit Dinner and Silent Auction will be held on
Friday, November 10th, 2017, with doors opening at 5:30 p.m at the Governor Ballroom in the Sentinel
Hotel. The signature evening is a fundraiser for Operation Code’s education programs that is currently
serving a community of over 3,000 military service members, guard & reserve troops, veterans,
spouses and family members globally with software mentorship, tech conference scholarships, career
support, networking and resources.
Individual tickets are $85 per person and are available for purchase online at [www.operationcode.org/
benefit](https://www.operationcode.org/benefit). Businesses can take advantage of the unique marketing opportunity through several levels of
sponsorship. Sponsorship participation provides an opportunity to show support for the Benefit and
those participating, along with advertisement for your company. All sponsorship levels include
different forms of signage and advertising at the event and recognition in our media outreach. All
levels include a table at the Benefit. A limited block of rooms at the Sentinel Hotel are available at
special pricing for our guests.
“The evening is an opportunity to pause, reflect and toast to our collective successes and wins that is
driving more veterans and family members into software development and filling the nation’s technical
shortage with America’s finest than ever before,” says ex-Army Captain David Molina, Operation
Code’s Founder & Executive Director. “This Benefit is an opportunity to meet our scholarship
recipients who have benefitted from our education programs, as well as enjoy good company and an
excellent dinner, and bid on some fabulous auction items.”
The Benefit will start with no-host wine & beer, delicious hors d’oeuvres and silent auction at 5:30
p.m., followed by a sumptuous dinner starting at 6:30 p.m, and an exciting program highlighting the
work of Operation Code. “At the rate this all-volunteer organization is growing year-over-year, it’s
become incredibly apparent that we not just pause for a moment to reflect on how much impact it has
had, but also endow a scholarship fund,” says Chris Dawson, technology entrepreneur and 2017
Benefit Co-Chair.
At this momentous benefit, Operation Code supporters will have the chance to meet our scholars
while bidding on some fabulous silent auction items including, Disneyland, Southwest Airlines, Toro
Bravo, and Hotel Lucia.
