Austin We Care hosts several seasonal events during the year to help alleviate the burdens experienced by families in need.
During December, Austin We Care sponsors a Christmas Department Store. A local gymnasium is set up like a department store and families are invited to "shop" for items free of charge. Each child selects a toy from the toy section and the family also receives a grocery package which includes a non-perishable items as well as a turkey. Austin We Care works with area schools and community centers to identify the families.
In August, Austin We Care sponsors a Back to School Event where children receive a backpack full of school supplies. During the event, children participate in a variety of fun activities getting them ready for a successful school year.
