Crank Up The Giving!
Whether Austin is the best place to live or the best city for dating, when it comes to national rankings, we stand tall. But there’s one area in which our fair city can always improve – Philanthropy. To help Austinites prove we are just as willing to donate to the causes we care about as we are to stage dive, I Live Here I Give Here® proudly introduces Amplify Austin.
Amplify Austin is a community-wide day of philanthropy with the goal of raising $1 million in 24-hours and, with your help, the reverb from our charitable giving will create excitement and goodness from 6th Street to Lake Travis…and beyond. Beginning at 7pm on March 4th, 2013, Central Texans will be encouraged to hop on www.ilivehereigivehere.org, to select from our list of over 300 local nonprofits, and show the rest of the world just how charitable this city can be. But the good vibes you get from giving isn’t all you gain by contributing.
Throughout the day randomly selected donors will win impromptu serenades from some of the city’s most cherished entertainers. Although only a handful of people can win the in-person performances, EVERYONE who donates will receive an e-tribute from a surprise musician too famous to mention. You’ll just have to wait and see once you do your part to Amplify Austin!
