ACC celebrates the holiday season with many ways to give back to our students, their families, and the community.
Shop to Support ACC Students December 5-6
Give back to students while shopping for holiday gifts or treating yourself. A portion (20%) of sales made at the Kendra Scott at The Domain store (11506 Century Oaks, Ste. 104) on Tuesday, December 5, will benefit the Austin Community College Foundation’s Student Emergency Fund. Purchases must be made during the in-store event from 3-5 p.m., which includes food, drink, and a raffle.
If you prefer to shop online, enter the Give Back Code GIVEBACK-FLSKT when you make a purchase on kendrascott.com December 5-6.
29th Annual Giving Tree
ACC hosts the 29th Annual Giving Tree to help support the children of our Student Advocacy Center (SAC) students. Employees who choose to participate can donate a gift or gift card to sponsor a child or family.
The gift tags are virtual and are posted on this Google spreadsheet. The deadline to sign up was Friday, November 17.
November 28 is #GivingTuesday
Employees are encouraged to support student scholarships at ACC this holiday season. On Tuesday, November 28, the college and the Austin Community College Foundation will join together to support the annual #GivingTuesday campaign. This year, the goal is to raise $15,000 for student scholarships during the annual day of giving.
The preliminary numbers are in. See how we did during Giving Tuesday this year HERE.
