The Board of Directors, staff and children of Austin’s House would like to thank the entire community for the tremendous support of our 2015 Appeal For Kids and 2016 Cowboy Mardi Gras fundraisers.

The 2015 Appeal For Kids ended on Jan. 31 and our generous community stepped up once again to help local children in crisis. The Cowboy Mardi Gras fundraiser on Feb. 26 was our best ever. Everyone had a great time for a great cause! Every dollar raised will be used to pay for operating expenses at Austin’s House.

It would be impossible to thank everyone who donated and surely I would leave off a deserving name. We would like to recognize the following donors.

Thank you, Patty Clark, owner of Century 21 Clark Properties and founder of the Austin Kirby Foundation, who donated $50,000.

Our three sponsors for Cowboy Mardi Gras: Thank you Carson City Toyota Scion, Carson Valley Medical Center and Frontier Communications.

Thank you to the following who purchased full tables at the Cowboy Mardi Gras: Hettrick Electric, GE, Cristek Interconnect, Brenda Robertson, Heritage Law, Douglas County, Town of Genoa, Pet Sitters, CASA of Douglas County, Edward Jones, Century 21 Clark Properties, David Shriver, United Electric and Carpet Cops. Thank you, Jennifer McLaughlin of Sierra Canopies, who did all the beautiful decorations.

I am truly honored to live in our beautiful Carson Valley with such generous neighbors. Austin’s House was built entirely with donations and your continued support keeps our beautiful facility open. Thank you very much!
