The fundraisers will take place in San Francisco and Portola Valley with prominent Silicon Valley tech executives such as former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer and Sun Microsystems co-founder Vinod Khosla.
One of the fundraising events will be held at the Portola Valley home owned by Khosla, according to a report by The Almanac, a local news outlet. Tickets are expected to range from $6,000 to $100,000.
