When asked why Launch Marketing chose to participate in Amplify Austin this year and offer a matching donation to Breakthrough Austin, Launch Marketing’s CEO Christa Tuttle had this say, “I thought it would be a fun way to give back to the community and incorporate our team in the process! Breakthrough Austin holds a very special place in my heart, as I am passionate about helping children grow into the best versions of themselves.”

This year, marks the second year in a row that Launch Marketing will participate in Amplify Austin Day and the entire team is proud to contribute to various inspiring organizations in the Austin community.
