Volunteer at Safe in Austin

ACEA Community Involvement Committee Seeks Donations of Material

The Community Involvement Committee takes on one or two projects per year to assist a local non-profit by providing labor and/or materials for a project that will enhance their program or benefit those served. This year, the Committee is working with Safe In Austin, a judgment-free space for children and animals that come from abuse or have special needs.

The organization has a long list of projects and is asking for support. On October 25th, 4Ward Land Surveying and Gray Engineering, Inc. teamed up for a Volunteer Work Day at Safe In Austin. Volunteers worked hard to maintain the rescue ranch’s drainage barn, maintenance areas, and pathways.

Steven Minor at Gray Engineering has been spearheading this project. The Community Involvement Committee seeks donations of funds and materials that will greatly enhance the chances of completing a few of Safe in Austin's most pressing projects.
