THANK YOU to our auction buyers and donors! 

Thank you to everyone who participated in the SOS virtual silent auction this year.  It was a great success and we deeply appreciate all of the wonderful local businesses that donated items and services and all of you who purchased them!  We look forward to return live next December with the 2022 SOS Holiday Party. 

 

Jump in on January 1, 2022! 

The Polar Bear Splash is a go!! We are excited to report that we will once again embrace this New Years Day tradition in '22 after having to miss the fun in '21 due to COVID. Save Our Springs will be set up at the front gate area from 8am - 4pm selling our commemorative t-shirts and providing hot coffee and donuts as long as they last! If you would like to volunteer at the SOS tent please email us at sosinfo@sosalliance.org.  Hope to see you there! 

Please consider a year end donation to SOS

Please consider a tax-deductible donation to Save Our Springs Alliance in your year end giving.   Donate before New Year's Day to claim your qualified tax-deduction on 2020 tax returns.  If you typically take the standard (non-itemized) deduction on your annual income taxes, this year's law provides an additional deduction for donations up to $300.  Also, your donation will be matched $1 for every $2 donated.  Thanks so much to those of you who have already made a donation or purchased an auction item. We are especially grateful for your support this year.

What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash!
