Membership is built to make it easier for donors to find and trust your organization, and easier for your team to raise funds and grow capacity year round. The program combines visibility through our giving platform and nonprofit directory, AmplifyATX.org, with training, connection, and giving moments that help nonprofits turn attention into sustained support.
Our membership with I Live Here I Give Here has benefitted the Austin Humane Society time and time again! From funding our life-saving mission during Amplify Austin Day, to enriching our staff through webinars and trainings, to being connected with colleagues across Central Texas – I Live Here I Give Here makes Central Texas nonprofits stronger and makes our community a better place to call home.
