Incredible feature by Avery Toomes and the talented Tribeza team including Editor-in-Chief Heidi Okla who knocked it out of the park once again for their latest Community Issue! We are honored to be among one of the organizations mentioned in their "Built By Many" story of how volunteers serve as the quiet force driving the Austin community forward. A special thank you to longtime volunteer Sharon Pierce for being our advocate for this piece and sharing about your experience with us over the years.

We honestly couldn't agree more: Working with every woman is a memorable experience. It's not just about the clothes - it's about dignity, opportunity and empowerment. We are just a small piece of the puzzle, but a piece that we value so much nonetheless. Grab your copy today, so many incredible stories to peruse!
