Step 1: Navigate to amplifyatx.org

Once there, click on the "Donate" button in the middle of the page to be brought to a list of all of the organizations participating in Amplify Austin.

Step 2: Search for a Participating Organization

On the Amplify Austin site, you'll find multiple ways to search for a participating organization to support. You can search by any of the following criteria:

  1. Organization Name

  2. Cause

  3. Keyword

You also have the option to use the "Show Filters" function to search by category, the county served, office location, leadership, etc.

Step 3: Donate to One Organization, or Fill Up Your Gift Basket

Once you find your organization, click on the "Donate" button. From here you will have the option to donate a decided amount or a custom amount. Once you have selected your amount you can add this donation to your basket and keep browsing the site or checkout immediately.

Step 4: Customize Your Donation(s)

When you're ready to complete your donation, you'll have the ability to customize your gift to that organization. You can change the amount you'd like to give, customize your display and anonymity settings for your donation, let the organization know if you are a new donor, and even include a personal message! You can even add/remove another gift in your cart without having to browse through the site again.

Click on the dropdown in bottom of the first page of the donation form as shown in the screenshot below. Choose your business organization in order to to attribute this gift. Once you've completed this field, navigate to the second page of the donation process by selecting the "Next" button.

Don't see your business listed?
Your Business might not have signed up to be a Business Fundraiser during Amplify Austin. As a Business Fundraiser, you are empowering your employees to give back to the community where they live, work and play. Businesses can also match those employee’s passions by offering matching dollars during Amplify Austin Day. Business Fundraising on the AmplifyATX.org platform provides an easy, fun and efficient way for your entire company to give together while helping local nonprofits.

We would be happy to get you signed up! Please email Chelsea Toler-Hoffmann, chelsea@ilivehereigivehere.org to get listed as a business fundraiser! Thanks for your interest!

Step 6: Provide Payment Information

In the second step of your donation, you'll enter your payment information, mailing address, and phone number (optional). All major credit cards are accepted.

For gifts of $250 or more, there will be an option to pay directly through your bank via the online platform. To change your method of payment to direct transfer from your bank, please select the dropdown at the very top and change your desired payment method. To finalize your gift, continue on to the third step.

Note: If you're not located in the U.S., you will be able to select another country from the "Country" dropdown box, and you'll be able to continue the donation process from there.

Step 6: Confirming Your Gift

In the final step of your Amplify Austin donation, you'll be asked to review and confirm your donation preferences. You will also have the option of covering the per-donation platform and transaction fees.

Once you have reviewed the information, click the "Submit" button to complete your donation!
