Continue to CureSearch

It's hard to believe the walk has come and gone!  Donations continued to trickle in and the current total for the 3rd Annual Austin CureSearch Walk is over $93,500.  Last year the Austin walk raised $45,000; way to go Austin!
If you want to contribute to CureSearch more than just at the annual walk, there are many ways to do so!
  • You can donate anytime on the CureSearch website!
  • If you work for a state agency in Texas, CureSearch is listed among the SECC (State Employees Charitable Campaign) where you can contribute directly from your paycheck.
  • Donate a portion of your auction or purchase on ebay.  Any eBay seller can use eBay Giving Works to donate 10% to 100% of their item's final sale price to CureSearch, and get a credit on their Insertion and Final Value fees. On the listing, buyers will see a banner with information about CureSearch, a link to the eBay Giving Works page, and the percentage of the final sale price the seller is donating.
  • Need to order Christmas Cards?  Check out CardsforCauses and 20% of your order is donated to CureSearch!
  • The next time you need to order flowers, choose Austin's Freytag's Florist.  With each order a customer can make a 5% donation to CureSearch by selecting the "Helping Hands" pull down menu on the order form and choosing CureSearch.
Know of a retailer, restaurant etc. that supports non-profits that you don't see on this list?  Spread the word about the amazing work that CureSearch is doing and ask them to join the fight against pediatric cancer!
