Austin Atheists Helping the Homeless Looking for Donations from All 50 States



July 13, 2014
By Hemant Mehta

For nearly five years now, a volunteer group of atheists called Austin Atheists Helping the Homeless has gathered each month to hand out care packages to people in their community who need it the most. Their funding comes entirely from donations and there’s no proselytizing involved (unless you include any signs with the group’s name). Just a great cause all around.

Well, their five year anniversary is coming up this September and they’d love to get donations from all 50 states. Since they’re not yet set up to take cash donations, the best way to help them out would be to purchase items on their Amazon Wish List. (The shipping address is located in the description section.)

It would be great to see that list fulfilled quickly. I bought an item already. Hope you’ll join me.
