AUSTIN’S BIGGEST DAY OF CHARITABLE GIVING
Austin, TX – I Live Here, I Give Here is hosting its annual “Amplify Austin”, charity marathon that lasts 24 hours. Austinites have the chance to give back to the city and make real change within the community. The “festival of giving” is a fast, fun, and easy way for anyone, even those outside of Austin, to assist nonprofits in the area with critical needs. In light of the recent Texas winter storm and the pandemic, local housing nonprofits need emergency assistance now more than ever.
Fundraising begins March 4th at 6 p.m. and will last 24 hours.
You can visit the Amplify Austin website on the giving day or schedule your donation today.
In 2020, Austin raised over $12.3 million for 760 nonprofits! That makes a donation of $69 million in the past 8 years. Every year the final donation count increases significantly. Let’s see what you can do in 2021 Austin, TX!
Support Safe & Affordable Housing Nonprofits
Austin Habitat For Humanity
Austin Habitat For Humanity is on a mission to end the cycle of poverty housing by providing affordable options and homeownership to those who may have never dreamed it to be possible. They are looking to raise $50,000 during Amplify Austin to fund the home build for a deserving Central Texan in need of a place to call their own.
Community First! Village
Community First! Village is building hope in a supportive community and transforming the lives of chronically homeless Central Texans. Your Amplify Austin gift will bring hope and relief to those living on the streets and welcome many others home to Community First! Village.
SAFE| Shelters
SAFE provides resources and shelter for children and women suffering from domestic abuse. Unfortunately, the pandemic has caused an increase in the need for their services and the winter storm caused damage to their shelter property. Your support today can help make sure services are available to children and families in need.
Foundation Communities
Foundation Communities provides beautiful, affordable homes to more than 7,000 people and a variety of housing services to anyone in need. Your support will bring housing, education, healthy living initiatives, and financial wellness to community members.
Central Texas Table of Grace
Central Texas Table of Grace creates a loving, nurturing, home-like environment for displaced youth in the Central Texas area, providing shelter and healthy food as well as teaching healthy habits and life skills. Your support will directly impact the lives of foster children and young adults and also support the new program “Grace365” which provides housing and continued support to young adults that age out of foster care.
We’re For Here
Realty Austin is on a mission to support safe and affordable housing for all. In 2019, the brokerage launched their We’re For Here campaign, a pledge to uplift neighbors in need of safe, affordable housing. Help spread the love by giving to local housing nonprofits.
