Austin Area Non Profit Leaders: Share Your Experience
RGK Center for Philanthropy and Community Service & TXNP
June, 2009
Texas Non Profits and the RGK Center for Philanthropy and Community Service invite you to participate in a brief survey on charitable giving in the Austin area. The purpose of this survey is to find out how giving to charitable organizations in the Austin area has changed over the past few years and to examine factors influencing giving.
If you work or serve in a voluntary capacity with a nonprofit in the Austin area (in Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop, or Caldwell counties), we encourage you to take 5-10 minutes of your time participate in this important study. After finishing the survey, you may submit your email address to enter a July 15 drawing for a FREE MASSAGE with Austin masseur Dwight Spears.
Your response will be kept confidential. Information from all responses will be analyzed by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin, and a summary of this analysis will be compiled. To begin the web survey that has been designed specifically for you, please click the link below.

About the 2009 I Live Here, I Give Here Study
The content of this survey was developed by staff at the RGK Center for Philanthropy and Community Service at the University of Texas at Austin, led by Dr. Peter Frumkin and Dr. Sarah Jane Rehnborg with the assistance of research assistant Rachel Veron Douglas.
This survey is part of a larger study designed to assess specific aspects of charitable giving in the Austin community, including how individuals make charitable decisions, how organizations designed to support giving influence these decisions, and how changes in giving culture have affected Central Texas nonprofits. Individual surveys are collectively tabulated to provide us with information about the dynamics of Austin’s giving culture over the past two years.
Thank you for your consideration,
