AUTMHQ UPDATE
Hola and Hello,
It's that time of year again! As the kiddos and college students head back to school, Austin Urban Technology Movement (AUTMHQ) attended Black Mamas Village ATX's Back 2 School Bash at the Thinkery. It was great seeing our community partners and the people we serve come out and celebrate a new school year. Even better was seeing the smiles on people's faces when AUTMHQ donated 7 laptops and 6 desktops to youth and young adults in need. Special thanks to all the AUTMHQ staff and volunteers who helped pass out devices at this event. Wishing everyone a safe and successful school year! Sincerely, The AUTMHQ Team
