Event Overview
The Gathering For Good event attracted a sold-out crowd of more than 350 people who came to support United Way For United Austin’s mission to break economic barriers and build opportunity for all. Thanks to the generous gifts of so many, our online silent auction raised more than $140,000! The event theme, Grow Wild, inspired us to plant seeds of change for our community so that, together, we will amplify our legacy of impact. It gives us all great joy to know that, as we celebrate 100 years of serving our community in 2024, those seeds will flourish in the next 100 years and beyond.
Producer’s Comments
“When we were planning the online auction, we knew we needed reliable WiFi so attendees could check in smoothly, and more importantly, bid on the extensive array of silent auction items on their phones without any lags. We weren’t sure the venue could handle the load and couldn’t afford to risk a WiFi breakdown, so we reached out to PopUp WiFi. They sent out one of their small units for a solid backup. It ran flawlessly.”
