About us
Austin Acts of Kindness exists to help the local community... We show kindness by volunteering at charitable events, and also by educating the public, gathering resources, and raising funds.
There are plenty of groups to volunteer with... Why choose us?
• We work for a wide variety of causes - education, mental health, hunger, homelessness, the environment, and many more.
• We are independent - not associated with a specific company, religion, age, or marital status. If you leave your company, have a milestone birthday, or change your relationship, you are welcome with us.
Typically AAK partners with an established organization, and we provide staffing and community support for a specific event... Characteristics of our volunteer events:
• Benefits the public or a non-profit organization which helps the general community.
• One time events... There is not an ongoing commitment, although we often like to return.
• No special skills, training, tools, extensive orientation or background check is needed... On-line registration with the sponsoring organization and brief task-oriented training is typical.
• Can use a flexible number of volunteers... AAK cannot guarantee a specific turnout - unfortunately volunteers recruited via social media can be flaky. Don't be that person - Please honor your RSVP.
Check out our Calendar. We hope to meet you at an upcoming event!
