Amplify Austin celebrates Austin's annual day of online giving. For 24 hours, the community comes together to support the city's local nonprofits!
Over the last four years, Amplify has raised over $24.7 million for hundreds of local organizations. In 2016 alone, 40 percent of the 61,625 donors were first-time givers to nonprofit organizations, and a total of $8.5 million was raised for over 600 Central Texas nonprofits.
This is the day to celebrate and support nonprofits based in the Austin area, the organizations that work hard to serve others. In 2016 alone, The RLS Foundation certified five additional RLS Quality Care Centers, reinvigorated our research grant program by committing to award up to eight new pilot grants totaling $200,000, developed a Teen Guide and Children's Booklet, created a multidisciplinary Scientific and Medical Advisory Board, and rolled out our Year of Augmentation, just to name a few!
And guess what? This online day of giving is not just restricted to the Austin area!. This 24 hour period celebrates local nonprofits, and encourages donations from supporters everywhere! Whether you have supported us for years, or are considering donating for the first time, Amplify with us!
Now is the time to get involved. You can set up your own individual fundraiser on behalf of the Foundation! Create your own fundraising goal and rally your community to donate to support your cause. Your fundraiser will be featured on the RLS Foundation page!
