I’m Peg.
Last year, while on leave from my job, I found myself with more free time. I decided I wanted to get more involved in community activities. I attended the fall meeting of the United Way Women's Giving Network (WGN). That particular meeting happened to feature a speaker who talked to us about child well-being and the state of childcare in the city.
The presentation moved me deeply, and I became interested in improving the quality of childcare in Austin.
Also at that meeting, I learned that the WGN did not yet have a system in place to provide its members the opportunities to participate in volunteer activities.
