It is designed for young adults who want to give back to their community but have limited time due to hectic lives and work schedules. Its activities are tailored toward young professionals' preferences and expectations, providing hands-on volunteering opportunities, happy-hour-style socials, and career networking and development.

Just got my invite to google wave and have been testing out robots and extensions. The most useful extension I've seen so far is the the All for Good extension.
"All for Good helps you find and share ways to do good in real time. It helps you take up volunteer opportunities, thus play a role in improving our communities and country."
Testing it out in Wave it seems to work fine, producing fresh volunteer results for Austin when I changed the location.
January 21, 2010. Grounded in Music is a nonprofit that launched in 2007 whose mission is to change the lives of under-privileged children by exposing them to music as a career, hobby, or alternative to life on the streets. Students are taught a variety of skills in musicianship such as writing lyrics, playing instruments, alongside exploring other areas of the music industry. Proceeds from this fundraiser go to purchasing musical instruments.
The fundraiser will also mark the official launch of the brand new state of the art charitable media and recording studio at the Boys and Girls Club in South Austin. This fully-functional studio is complete with all the latest technology in recording software and will be used to record single artists and full bands. The children can pursue whatever interests them–recording, mixing, mastering, editing–because the studio has it all.
Mentors in the program include well-known artists like Board Member and event headliner Patty Griffin, My Morning Jacket, Vallejo, Broken Teeth, and Jonathan Tyler and the Northern Lights. Ray Wylie Hubbard and Cory Morrow have financially supported the program.
Prior to the event, there will be a VIP cocktail party at 6pm featuring a performance by Porter Davis and a silent auction. Tickets are just $35 and officially go on sale Saturday, December 12 and can be purchased online. If VIP is your style ($100/ticket), email lindsay@groundedinmusic.org.

The purpose of this meetup is to get every Verizon Wireless user connected with the American Red Cross and other volunteer organizations. Lets all lend, not our money, but our helping hands to a nonprofit institution that relies solely on volunteer participation!
So every month, this group will meet and discuss ways we can help our fellow Austinites and the surrounding areas. Most of us are EXTREMELY busy with our daily lives, no doubt. However a lot of people just like us, as busy as us, making it day to day, suddenly incur tragic incidents on a daily basis.
