Virgin Unite is the entrepreneurial foundation of the Virgin Group, founded in 2004 to unite people and entrepreneurial ideas to create opportunities for a better world. Sir Richard Branson supports projects that he’s passionate about, such as being an advocate for gay rights, drug policy reform and using his voice to shine a spotlight on issues he believes are unacceptable, such as poaching and the death penalty. “We know we can’t change the world on our own, so we bring together entrepreneurs, philanthropists and inspirational leaders – then we collaborate for good. We want to form a powerful global community that are able to drive change.” www.virgin.com/unite There will be a live & silent auction including some incredible items such as: LIVE AUCTION Aeronavics NAVI Aerial Robot valued at $24,145.
