Below is a list of services we are currently offering:
Summer camp: Since 2007, we have run a summer camp program for children for ages 4-11. It is a low-cost, affordable program with the proceeds going back into other community outreach programs as well as supplies for the camp. The camp focuses on Academics, Activites, & Adventure! Click here for more information.
Tutor-A-Child : This program offers free tutoring services to children for any Austin area school, based on income and household size. We can only serve as many children as there are volunteers, but we will do our best to help everyone who needs it! Click here for the tuition assistance form. (You MUST also include the Tutoring Registration Form.
For those who do not qualify for free tutoring, we offer low prices on our tutoring programs because we want every student to get the help they need. (2 hours/week = $30, 3 hours/week = $40) Contact Erick at 512-576-7790 or by email: erick@iwant2help.us for more information on scheduling a tutoring session.

Community Outreach: This program offers a way to build a community by bridging gaps across neighborhoods, schools, and communities. We work with several different non-profits to try to connect YOU with the type of volunteer work you would like to do! Our volunteers have participated in the Diabetes Walk, Autism Walk, Stop Child Trafficking Now Walk, Race for the Cure, and more. If you would like to help on a one-on-one scale, you may work as a volunteer offering emotional support and a listening ear to those who are dealing with difficult times, have lost a loved one, or simply need a friend. We can also provide food, clothing, books, as needed on a case by case basis.
Repair/Rebuild: This program offers help to families and homes in need, specifically the elderly, who need small repairs done to their home to facilitate their day to day activities. This may include, but is not limited to, the addition of a wheelchair ramp, purchasing of necessary household appliances, small repairs, etc. Click here to contact us about a request for help OR to volunteer time and/or services.
Book Drive: We would like to help develop and establish libraries in the community. They can range from donations to a local hospital or as an addition to an Austin area school classroom, daycare, community center, or even to a specific family in need.
Litter Pick Up: On select weekends, we choose a section of land that needs a little help. We spend 1-2 hours picking up trash, sometimes adding flowers or plants, and try to make every section of land in Austin as welcoming as our people. Please contact us for information on where we'll be next or to suggest a place that needs a good pickup crew!
We never turn down a volunteer or a donation.
We never turn down an idea.
If you would like to add to our program by donating a service that you can provide, we would love to have you as part of our team. There are children out there that would appreciate a free dance class once a week or an art class! Any help you provide will be appreciated and utilized.
