Donations and Support

The Austin Family Foundation Employee Assistance Fund was created to help employees who are facing financial hardship immediately after a natural disaster or an unforeseen personal hardship. This was initially funded by a generous donation by the Austin Family Foundation and provides tax-free grants to help A-dec, The Allison and Austin Industries employees in need when they are facing the unexpected. Anyone, including employees, customers, vendors and community groups may also donate to the Fund. Every donation makes a difference and can be as a one-time gift or an ongoing periodic contribution.
