Affiliates of the
Austin Blessings Co-op

We’re a collaboration of people and organizations on a mission to meet our city’s practical, emotional, and spiritual needs. What we have found is there is strength in neighbors across this diverse city that we call home. In a time of division, we aim to unite around a few core principles, and to lean on those who can accomplish things much better than ourselves. We refer to these organizations as “Affiliates” and “Faith-based Partners”
