Empowering underserved folks to overcome barriers & grow as leaders.

WE ARE WHO WE SERVE ™

We put our beliefs into action by guiding people to vital resources—like housing support, utility aid, and advocacy—with care and dignity. We also team up with local partners to run food pantries, clothing closets, and diaper distributions for those in need.

What We Do

By meeting basic needs, we empower individuals in Austin, TX and surrounding areas towards self-sufficiency and community leadership.

  • We help marginalized community members access essentials—housing, food, transportation, healthcare, showers, and MAP enrollment. We connect them with trusted partners and stay by their side until they’re supported.

  • We offer movement-based healing—like yoga, meditation, and sound baths—to support the well-being of marginalized communities in Central Texas. Through joy and care, we create space to reset, heal, and reconnect.

  • We provide urgent need items to community members throughout the month. Items available include household goods, pregnancy tests, Narcan, fresh & non-perishable food, baby care, cleaning supplies, laundry soap, hygiene items, and bus passes.
