THIRD ANNUAL AMPLIFY WILCO DAY

WHAT: I Live Here I Give Here is inviting Williamson County community members to participate in this year’s Amplify Wilco Day, a hyperlocal, complementary campaign to Amplify Austin Day that will kick off at 6 p.m., March 4, and conclude at 6 p.m. on Thursday, March 5. Residents across Williamson County are encouraged to make donations to support over 90 local nonprofit organizations during this 24-hour period.

Amplify Wilco Day aims to increase giving to local nonprofits in Williamson County by providing easily accessible giving opportunities on the online platform AmplifyWilco.org. Donors can search for nonprofit organizations by keyword, location, and category across Williamson County. The event will benefit over 90 Williamson County-serving nonprofits.
