Charity Initiatives |
|
GAMA Board is looking into ways to contribute to the Austin community through various local activities and charity drives. Towards this end, our Charity Committee has taken the first steps by attending an orientation session for the Salvation Army which feeds the homeless 3 meals a day, 365 days a year! |
|
Also, we propose to conduct a canned food drive to benefit a local charity in the Austin area during our annual picnic. To this endeavor, if you are interested, we ask your support and participation through donation of canned goods or non-perishable food items on April 19th.
