IN PICTURES: Jamestown honored for supporting teen tech program

Hudson Guild  honored Jamestown, L.P. and its president, Michael Phillips at its 6th Annual Gala in recognition of Jamestown’s  support of Hudson Guild’s new Tech Up Lab and program.  Tech Up is designed to engage teens and young adults living in New York City Housing Authority’s (NYCHA) Fulton, Elliott, and Chelsea Public Housing Developments, and aims to fill the gap in technology and career training for at-risk youth residents. Jamestown provided over $1 million for renovation of the new facility and operational costs for the first few years of programming. Additionally, Google provided the required technology equipment and NYCHA is making the space available to Hudson Guild free of charge.
