Amplify Austin Creative Reuse

This Amplify Austin Day we are inviting you to help support our staff like they support our community. Our people are what makes Austin Creative Reuse possible.  Our dedicated staff and volunteers have powered our growth from our earliest days and in the last year, they have seen us through an unprecedented global pandemic.  Their well-being has always been our top priority - our commitment to them led us to close our doors to the public twice in the last year as we sought to do our part to stop the spread of the coronavirus.  Our center has been closed more than 6 months over the last year.  We are putting the well-being of our community ahead of our bottom line, but now we need your help.Your donation will help offset the revenue lost while our doors have been closed. It will allow ACR to continue to pay our staff’s wages and offer paid time off that allows our staff to take care of themselves and their families. It will keep our lights on, cover our rent and buy much needed safety supplies like PPE and hand sanitizer. It will fund technology to allow more staff to work from home during the pandemic. Help us put community first, starting with the individuals who make it all happen.
