Amplify Austin
Join us in Austin’s first community-wide giving festival. The challenge to our community is to raise $1 million in 24 hours. The ACO is one of 330 community nonprofits participating in this day of giving from 7 pm March 4 through 7 pm, March 5.
With Amplify Austin, ACO is drumming-up dollars for new percussion instruments so that our beat goes on! Donate at
Amplify Austin (https://amplifyaustin.s3.amazonaws.com/npo6040.html). During this event, all donations to ACO are amplified 16%.
We can go beyond 16% by winning our "Donation Power Hour" from 8-9 PM on March 4th! If we have the highest donor activity or most total donations during this time,
I Live Here I Give Here will award ACO with a $1,000 bonus donation!
