Volunteers are the key.

Orientations

All of our volunteers are encouraged to attend an orientation. We tailor our orientations for each of our programs, and we spread the sessions out to help accommodate your schedule.

You will need to register to attend an orientation (the schedule is below). To register, please call the office at (512) 454-8646 or contact us via email. The location varies and space is limited, so it is best to call at least a week before a scheduled orientation.

Texas Swing 2010: A Wild Western Success!

The 15th Annual TEXAS SWING was a tremendously fun evening and a great success! Almost 750 guests enjoyed barbecue from Scholz Garten, three bars, two music stages, a photo booth by BoothBooth, and special Texas Swing-themed hanky codes. Dance Host volunteers and guests lit up the dance floor, Salt & Time provided sumptuous artisanal salumi, Ambhar Tequila brought their delicious tequila for our margaritas, and everyone enjoyed the music of Alvin Crow, The Lost Pines and Whiskey Shivers. The silent auction this year included pieces by fabulous Etsy artists, great gift certificates and luxurious items from local merchants. This year we were able to raise over $32,000, all going directly into our programs for people living with HIV/AIDS in our community. Thank you all for making the event great!
