Austin Community Foundation
The Austin Community Foundation is a unique, not-for-profit connection between donors from all walks of life and the broad spectrum of efforts that improve our evolving community. The Foundation brings an efficiency of scale to donors, allowing charitable dollars to go as far as possible toward improving life for all Central Texans.
Texas Coffee Traders – 1400 E. 4th St.
Coffee is always brewing at Trinity Center, and Texas Coffee Traders donates it all. We make about 35 pots/day, day after day, week after week. Many of the small miracles that happen at Trinity Center do start over a cup of coffee. We’ve heard that many neighbors are drawn to us for the great coffee we serve; it all comes from Texas Coffee Traders. Texas Coffee Traders gives back in many ways. They are committed to fair trade and they support a variety of local events, charities and programs. Thanks for your constant support.
 El Milagro – 910 E. 6th St.
We serve tortillas with breakfast every day, and tortilla wraps and chips at our Sunday “Streets” program. Our neighbors get the very best, because El Milagro donates all the tortillas and chips for these programs. The demand is constant and ongoing; we thank you El Milagro for your generosity!
  Omni Austin Downtown Hotel – 700 San Jacinto
Our neighbors are always in need of toiletries. Omni Austin helps us keep a steady supply of these items by collecting partially used hotel toiletries and donating them to Trinity Center. Omni Austin is dedicated to giving back to the local community.
NAOT/Shoeboxes - 2438 W. Anderson Lane
Shoe manufacturer NAOT has donated hundreds of pairs of ladies shoes to Trinity Center neighbors. NAOT Distributor and Shoe Boxes owner, Chuck Banks, and Shoe Boxes Office Manager, Cindy Jacobs make arrangements with NAOT, and then NAOT ships the shoes for distribution to those in need. On “Shoe Day” at our Woman-to-Woman program, Banks and Jacobs personally fit our neighbors with the shoes of their choice. The neighbors are thrilled to have such nice, good fitting and comfortable shoes. Thank you NAOT and Shoe Boxes!
James Allan: the Salon – 4406 Burnet Rd.
James Allan Bryant worked with friend and Trinity Center volunteer Stacy Schoolfield to hold "Cuts for a Cause” to benefit Trinity Center. On Aug 17th, twelve top Austin stylists from four salons got together and cut hair, lots of hair, all day. Lots of money was raised and patrons got haircuts from these top stylists for a suggested $25 donation. Galaxy Café and Café Divine provided snacks. Other salons represented were: Bob Salon, Frenchy’s and Saks 5th Avenue. KVUE filmed and ran a feature story on the event.
