For over a decade, 100state has been a beacon of innovation and community in Madison, Wisconsin. Founded in 2013 as a co-working space and hub for the burgeoning tech scene, 100state quickly became a nurturing environment where entrepreneurs, remote workers, and creative minds could thrive through collaboration, mentorship programs, and mutual support.

However, the unprecedented challenges of 2021 dealt a significant blow, with dwindling membership and mounting financial pressures forcing a relocation. Undeterred, 100state's founding pillar Joseph Sweeny Dahari reassumed leadership in 2021, instilling stability and charting a new path focused on sustainability.

In 2023, the baton passed to JJ Pagac and his wife Kelly, devoted members of the 100state family. Under their stewardship, the community has undergone a remarkable renaissance. Through dynamic marketing strategies, they have reengaged with the local community and fostered new partnerships. Their enriching entrepreneurial programming, mentorship initiatives, and offerings like 100elevate's holistic wellness programs and 100arts' bi-annual gallery showcases have reinvigorated 100state. As a result, the organization has experienced a significant surge in membership, including dedicated outreach to student entrepreneurs.

Today, the heart of 100state beats through the selfless dedication of its volunteers. This capital campaign seeks to recognize the invaluable contributions of the Pagac family by providing a modest salary, while also securing the organization's financial future.
