Amplify 2027 is Approaching!
Amplify Wilco is a hyper-local campaign that runs alongside Amplify Austin. For 24 hours, the community is invited to give back to more than 700 local nonprofits as part of the biggest online giving event in Central Texas. Hosted by I Live Here I Give Here, Amplify has raised millions for local nonprofits.
Over the years, Amplify, a completely online giving experience, became the signature fundraising event for The Caring Place. No tickets, no auctions, just the heartfelt generosity of a community wanting to make the greatest local impact. Last year, our sponsors gave $91,500 and donors matched every dollar and then some. Your sponsorship is a great motivator for donors, both new and returning, to support the critical work of The Caring Place! With the help of sponsors and donors like you, The Caring Place raised $195,683 in 2026 and ranked 2nd in funds raised by nonprofits providing basic needs assistance.

The Impact of Your Sponsorship
In 2025, The Caring Place distributed over $4.7 million in total support to 12,311 neighbors and this year, we're on track to do even more. In our rapidly growing community, the need keeps rising. More of our neighbors are in crisis, and we're looking for more supporters to step in and make a difference.
This year's Amplify theme is "Put Caring on the Map," and we invite you to help us do exactly that. Will you become an Amplify Wilco sponsor for The Caring Place?
