Nine of our young professionals volunteered at the Central Texas Food Bank on the afternoon of Saturday, July 13, working in teams with other volunteers to sort through donated dried goods, discard unusable donations, assemble and break down boxes in the CTFB warehouse. Collectively, their shift provided 180 boxes of food (4,500 pounds or ~3,750 meals) for folks across Central Texas. Thank you to all volunteers!

Capital Area Chapter TAWWA reposted this
📣 CALLING ALL OPERATORS! Did you know that TAWWA offers a scholarship for current water operators (distribution, facility, lab, etc.) to use towards continuing education? On top of this, starting this year, the Capital Area Chapter will be offering a scholarship to a local applicant. To be considered for both, apply online at https://lnkd.in/gj-kdqGB. Applications received at the State level will be considered at the Chapter level - in other words, you only need to submit your application once to be considered for both. If you have any questions, please reach out to our scholarship chair, Kristen Van Hoosier, P.E. (kvanhoosier@cobbfendley.com). She can also be available for virtual info sessions with operators and/or their supervisors.
