✨ What an honor! ✨ We’re thrilled to be recognized with the ⭐️Affordability Champion Award ⭐️at the Greater Austin Business Awards, hosted by the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce. We share this award with Workforce Solutions/Capital Area. A HUGE thank you to our amazing staff and board—this wouldn’t be possible without your talents and dedication. 🙌 As Greater Austin’s largest childcare provider, the Y is dedicated to expanding access to affordable, quality care, supporting working parents, and enhancing economic opportunities. We urge #TravisCounty voters to support Proposition A. Childcare affects us all, and expanding access will elevate the quality of life across our community. #GreaterAustinBusinessAwards #austin #austintx #austintexas #nonprofit #nonprofitleadership
