Rebecca received the El Paso in Austin Trailblazer Award and joined the annual reception in October 2024 to receive the award in person at the Downtown Austin Alliance. All proceeds from the event helped to fund scholarships for El Paso high school seniors planning to attend Austin-area colleges.
"The El Paso in Austin Network was created to support El Pasoans living in Austin. What began as small gathering has grown into a thriving community committed to education, cultural preservation, and mutual support. Through events, scholarships, and partnerships, we strengthen the bond between our two beloved cities. The El Paso in Austin Network proudly recognizes outstanding El Pasoans making a difference in Austin through the Trailblazers Awards. Established in 2012, this event honors individuals who exemplify service, innovation, and leadership. Trailblazers are nominated by fellow El Pasoans and celebrated at the annual Trailblazers Fall Reception. In addition to being celebrated locally, honorees are recognized back home in El Paso by having the iconic Star on the Mountain lit in their honor".
