About the Event: Lunch for LifeWorks

The Lunch for LifeWorks attracts over 300 of Austin’s leaders, advocates and changemakers who believe every young person in Austin deserves a place to call home and a sense of belonging.

What Works? LifeWorks.

What does it take to change the trajectory of a young person's life? 

We invite you to join LifeWorks on Wednesday, September 2, for our annual fundraising luncheon. This year’s theme, What Works, will highlight the proven strategies, powerful stories, and community investment that help young people experiencing homelessness in Central Texas build stable, independent futures.  

Join us from 11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. at the Junior League Center of Austin. Can’t attend in person? A virtual livestream option is available when you register.

Every day, LifeWorks helps young people in our community find stable housing, build careers, continue their education, and create lasting independence. While youth homelessness continues to rise across Central Texas, we know something important: solutions exist, and they work. 

Throughout the program, you'll hear two powerful perspectives: the evidence-based strategies driving our work and the real stories that bring that impact to life. Together, they answer an important question:  

What Works? LifeWorks.
