The ATXelerator, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is sponsoring the auction with all proceeds to be donated to Foundation Communities’ emergency relief fund. 

The mission of the ATXelerator is to identify and prepare future-focused leaders for public service and educate the community about solutions that will improve Austin's quality of life for generations to come. 

The ATXelerator was founded in 2017 to encourage civic leaders and voters to support big ideas to move this city boldly into the future.

Austin has now transitioned from a medium-sized city largely focused on a public-sector economy to the 11th largest U.S. city with a bustling global tech and innovation-based ecosystem. The secret’s out, and for us to hold on to the spark that brought us here, it’s critical that we plan for the future in a sustainable manner. 

Our vision is an inclusive community that provides opportunity for all its citizens. To make this vision a reality, we identify and prepare future-focused leaders through our innovative ATXelerator program and guide them toward public service. We also educate and support civic leaders and the public about policy solutions that position Austin for future success.

With an advisory board of former Austin mayors, council members and other community leaders, the ATXelerator has one main and very big constituent: the future. It’s our responsibility to take action today that prepares our region for tomorrow so that all — current and future residents — can benefit from the promise of Central Texas.
