About the event
Organized by I Live Here I Give Here, Amplify Wilco Day is a hyperlocal giving campaign highlighting Williamson County nonprofits that will take place March 6-7 from 6 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Over 60 nonprofits across the county are participating in this inaugural event, including the Central Texas SPCA, Drive a Senior Northwest, Faith in Action Georgetown and Operation Liberty Hill, to name a few.
Though the main event is still days away, Williamson County locals can begin donating early to any of the participating Amplify Wilco nonprofits online.
