Donate & Make a Difference
Your support fuels the mission of the Austin Take A Chance Organization (ATACO) — helping LGBTQIA+ individuals facing displacement find dignity, stability, and a second chance.
Monetary Donations
Financial contributions allow us to meet urgent needs on the spot — from providing meals and transportation to covering the cost of essential supplies. Every dollar goes directly toward outreach and resources for those we serve.

Item Donations
In addition to monetary gifts, we gratefully accept essential items that make an immediate impact in someone’s daily life:
New socks and undergarments
Working cell phones (with chargers if possible)
Household items and small furniture
Hygiene products and cleaning supplies
Non-perishable foods
Drop-off or Pickup: We make it easy to give — items can be dropped off at designated locations, or one of our volunteers can arrange a pickup at your home or business. Just reach out, and we’ll make it happen.
Why Give?
Every donation, big or small, creates a bridge for someone who’s struggling. Whether it’s a hot meal, a working phone, or a safe conversation, your support helps us provide second chances where they’re needed most.
One Second Chance at a Time.
