To help alleviate some of the holiday stresses, knowing this time of year can be financially tough and stressful for many in the Austin community, Austin FC and H-E-B have teamed up to deliver, our “Season of Giving” platform. This platform carries out a series of events to show our mutual dedication and support for the community during the holiday season.

H-E-B and Austin FC hosted several Surprise & Delight events featuring Austin FC Players, soccer operations and front office staff at various H-E-B locations.

On Thanksgiving, Austin FC front office staff- including President Andy Loughnane and VP of Community Impact Trennis Jones- volunteered at Operation Turkey, where they prepared and packaged meals for unhoused and underserved families in Austin to ensure they could enjoy a warm Thanksgiving meal.

Austin FC partnered with Four Hands Furniture to transform the living room of Angel Rodriguez, a Verde Leaders Coach and security manager at St. David’s Performance Center, in celebration of his recent move to a new home with his long-time girlfriend, Anne.

Four Hands curated the perfect space with furniture, art, and accessories, while players Dani Pereira and Jon Gallagher helped welcome the couple into their newly styled home.
