fab five
Join us at the Hyatt Regency Austin on Friday, April 14, 2023
Each spring, Seedling invites the greater Austin community to celebrate and honor five community leaders – “Austin’s Fab Five,” who have made a significant impact in the lives of Central Texas children. This prestigious event benefits the Seedling Mentor Program by raising vital funds in support of children affected by parental incarceration. Seedling is proud to announce the 2023 Fab Five Honorees: Blake Absher, Austin Market President, Broadway Bank, Ana Cortez, President at Mexican American School Boards Association, Jonathan “Chaka” Mahone, founder of DAWA (Diversity and Wellness in Action), Lisa Ivie Miller, Principal and Financial Advisor, CAPTRUST and Dr. Rosalind Oliphant, Mentor Teacher and Community Partnerships for Bertha Sadler Means Young Women’s Leadership Academy and Gus Garcia Young Men’s Leadership Academy. We are thrilled to be able to share more about these outstanding individuals’ stories and their many contributions to our community. Event festivities include a reception and silent auction, an inspiring program over dinner with honoree recognitions and testimonials, live auction entertainment by Louisiana State Champion Auctioneer, David Ackel, and a fun dance party for the late owls. More information can be found on the Fab Five website.Â
