AWTAustin members make a difference within our community by volunteering to help our nonprofit partners. We've had an outstanding record of introducing our members to nonprofits, improving the lives of women and children, the elderly, and the homeless. Helping our spotlight nonporfits makes AWTAustin more visible as a force for change in Austin.
Our 2007-08 spotlight nonprofit was GENaustin: Girls Empowerment Network. You can reach GENaustin directly for ongoing volunteer opportunites at www.genaustin.org.
Our 2006-07 spotlight nonprofit was AGE (Austin Groups for the Elderly). For more information and volunteero opportunites with AGE, go to www.ageofaustin.org.
Our 2005-06 spotlight nonprofit was Center for Child Protection. For a choice of CCP volunteer opportunities, go to www.centerforchildprotection.org.
We welcome your suggestions about what kind of volunteer work you would like to do and which nonprofits you think would be good candidates for our spotlight. Email us at outreach@awtaustin.org.
AWTAustin has hosted these nonprofit speakers at past meetings. Any of these organizations would welcome your assistance and are always in need of volunteers.
