About Amplify Austin
I Live Here I Give Here™ is on a mission to make Central Texas the most generous community in the nation. We believe that we can build a more united, more equitable, and more prosperous community for all when we give together.
I Live Here I Give Here helps you embrace generosity to make your mark, your way, on our community. Austin has been named one of the most economically segregated cities in the country while also being named one of America’s strongest economies. Austin is currently ranked the 33rd most generous city in the US, compared to our neighbors Dallas at number 4, Houston at number 5, and San Antonio at number 25. We know we can do better, especially in a community where we value our culture of kindness!
Programs like Amplify Austin Day, See Us Give (formerly See Jane Give and Give Back Jack), Giving Tuesday, and the Board Training Program are designed to help you identify the causes you are passionate about, discover local nonprofits advancing those causes, and get involved through volunteerism, advocacy, fundraising, board service, and financial support. By inspiring new and young, givers, volunteers, and activists to make an impact on the community where they live, I Live Here I Give Here™ is ensuring that Austin thrives for decades to come.
I Live Here I Give Here is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that was established in 2007.
