How To Give
Education Series
We hear it all the time, people WANT to give back - they just don’t know HOW? Well friends, when there’s a will, there’s a way. We welcome you to a first of its kind online learning series all about “How To Give.” We’ll dive into the many ways individuals, families, clubs, and even businesses can support nonprofits.
Based on the 5 T’s of Giving (time, talent, treasure, ties, and testimony), each quarter, we’ll bring you a practical topic and lineup of experienced panelists to get you giving in a way that meets you where you are. If you’ve ever felt inspired to make an impact, this series is for you!
How to give: Spotlighting Community needs Across Central Texas
Thursday, January 29, 2026
11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Zoom Webinar
Cost: Free
Choosing where to give can feel overwhelming — especially in a community with so many meaningful causes and nonprofits doing important work.
On AmplifyATX.org, hundreds of Central Texas nonprofits are organized by cause to help donors discover organizations that align with their interests and values. While every cause area plays a vital role in a healthy community, we’ve noticed that some categories tend to receive less attention during Amplify Austin Day than others.
This How to Give session will gently spotlight three cause areas that often see fewer donations during the day of giving — veterans services, disaster relief, and enrichment opportunities for children — and invite our community to learn more about the nonprofits working in these spaces.
Join us to explore how these causes contribute to Central Texas and to consider how your giving this Amplify Austin Day can help strengthen the full ecosystem of nonprofits across our region.
