Community Lunch | Philanthropy

2 02 2011

So this post is a bit over due considering it’s from Christmas buuutttt….I’ve been busy?  Anywho.  On Christmas morning I headed up to church with my Dad to help with the Christmas lunch for the community.  There was a ton of food, a plethora of delicious desserts, and lots of volunteers which was great considering we had around 800 people to serve!  Everyone jumped to action, taking care of each assignment.  People were cooking, serving drinks, divvying up desserts, packing meals for the home bound.  You name it, it was getting done.

With the map laid out, volunteers ready and meals packed it was time to hit the town to serve the home bound.

But not before a quick blessing.

With the helpers in place…

even the little ones…

it was time to serve.

What a crowd!  Thank you to all of those that attended and served!  It was  a blessing all around.  Definitely a great way to share the spirit of Christmas.

TYP Austin – Sept. Event | Networking

6 10 2010

We had a great turn out last week for Austin’s Texas Young Professionals September event at Zax Restaurant & Bar.  The weather was fantastic so the patio at Zax was perfect.  Plus Zax offers 20 beers on tap, great happy hour specials and delicious food.

This month we partnered with Ignite a Dream Foundation.  The Foundation’s goal is to give children the opportunity to learn sportsmanship and teamwork through great leadership.   They are hosting their 1st Annual Golf Classic today.  We, at TYP, wish them the best of luck.  If you want to learn more about Ignite a Dream, please visit their website.

 

Thank you to everyone that attended the event!  Special thanks to Ignite a Dream for sharing your foundation’s mission with us!   And a BIG thank you to Zax for having us; we had a great time!!

Our next event will be October 19th from 6-8pm at Parkside on East 6th St.  In honor of October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we will be partnering with the young professionals of Susan G. Komen.  We encourage everyone to wear PINK to the event to show support.  Also, don’t forget to mark your calendars for Susan G. Komen’s Race for the Cure on November 7th.
