WHEREAS, The year 2013 marks the 20th anniversary of the |
|
Young Women's Alliance; and |
|
WHEREAS, Established in Austin in 1993, the organization was |
|
founded by some 20 young professional women who gathered regularly |
|
to network and exchange ideas and information concerning their |
|
business endeavors; the group grew, and in 1995, members wrote |
|
bylaws, incorporated as a nonprofit corporation under the name |
|
Win2, and formed a board of directors and an advisory council; the |
|
following year, the board officially changed the name of the |
|
organization to the Young Women's Alliance; and |
|
WHEREAS, Today, the YWA is composed of more than 200 women |
|
from different industries and diverse backgrounds, ranging in age |
|
from early 20s to late 30s; the alliance provides its members a wide |
|
range of educational programs, as well as professional development |
|
and leadership opportunities; and |
|
WHEREAS, For two decades, this outstanding organization has |
|
supported many young women in their quest to achieve their full |
|
potential, and it is indeed a privilege to recognize the alliance at |
|
this special point in its history; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
Legislature hereby commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Young |
|
Women's Alliance and extend to its members sincere best wishes for |
|
continued success; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for the alliance as an expression of high regard by the |
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
