Central Texans Unite for Giving Tuesday: A Platform for Generosity
As the holiday season approaches, Central Texans are gearing up for a global generosity movement known as Giving Tuesday, taking place on December 2, 2025. Central to this initiative is I Live Here I Give Here (ILHIGH), the community leader for local philanthropy, which provides an invaluable resource through Amplify Austin, a vibrant nonprofit registry designed to facilitate donations.
Gifts Beyond Money: Donating Time and Talent
While financial contributions are a significant focus, Amplify Austin recognizes that generosity also includes time and talent. The platform allows users to search for nonprofits by various categories, including BIPOC-led organizations, empowering donors to support causes that resonate with their values. Locals can easily identify opportunities to volunteer or mentor, making their contributions even more impactful.
Visualizing Impact: Making Donations Count
One unique feature of Amplify Austin is its innovative approach to helping donors visualize the outcomes of their contributions. By associating monetary donations with specific goals—like $25 for wildlife feeding equipment or $100 for veterinary care—donors are not just giving money; they're enabling life-changing impacts for their chosen organizations. This strategy not only enhances transparency but also inspires donors to spread the word about their cause and encourage their friends to contribute.
A Proven Track Record: Giving Back to the Community
The success of Giving Tuesday in Central Texas is evident, with over $250,000 raised in previous years through the efforts of ILHIGH. In 2024 alone, the organization facilitated donations of $251,790 for local nonprofits, highlighting the community's commitment to supporting those in need. It’s the ninth consecutive year ILHIGH has led this charge, making a measurable difference in the lives of countless residents through its Amplify Fund, which supports a wide array of local charities.
Get Involved: Join the Movement
Sparking a movement of generosity has never been easier. On December 2, when you shop for the people you love, take a moment to consider funding a cause you care about through Amplify Austin. By doing so, you’re not just making a donation; you’re becoming part of a community that prioritizes connection, compassion, and growth.
