Now in its sixth year, Austin Entertains supports entrepreneurs and innovative women in the culinary arts by showcasing Austin’s most talented chefs and bartenders alongside local winemakers, breweries and spirit purveyors.
Exciting sponsorship opportunities are available! For more information, please email Fund Development VP, funddevelopmentvp@jlaustin.org.
Proceeds from Austin Entertains support The Junior League of Austin, which provides volunteers and funding to area nonprofit agencies for the benefit and enrichment of the Austin community and the development and education of our JLA volunteers.
The Endowment Fund is a separate investment fund for the benefit of the Junior League of Austin. Your gift to our Endowment Fund becomes part of a permanent investment, whose interest and dividends provide an ongoing source of financial support to the League (and ultimately furthers our community impact) in the years ahead.
A Christmas Affair is the largest fundraiser for The Junior League of Austin, allowing us to further our mission. The over $1 million dollars raised through the four-day shopping experience helps our 2,400 members:
Feed 900 children suffering from food insecurity each week during the school year through our signature program, FIT -- Food in Tummies
Provide approximately 35,000 coats annually to children who don't otherwise have a warm winter coat through Coats for Kids and 5000 shoes per year to kids
Volunteer and provide financial support to 25+ community non-profits
A Christmas Affair hosts approximately 200 vendors in a themed shopping extravaganza which includes parties, children's events, and the season's biggest celebrity: Santa!
