Tipping Point founder and CEO Daniel Lurie announced today that his foundation had successfully raised the $10 million they’d targeted from 20 Bay Area tech companies, including Apple and Google.

The announcement comes the day before Tipping Point’s massive benefit dinner along Pier 48, headlined this year by OneRepublic.
