F3 Austin PAX,
We’ve got big news…
After 457 days of planning, prayer, and purpose, we are proud to officially launch the Austin HIM Foundation — the dedicated fundraising arm of F3 Austin. The Foundation exists to do more than collect funds — it’s here to multiply the mission to extend our impact across the city we serve. This marks a new chapter in the life of F3 Austin — one where we move from sustaining momentum to building a legacy.
And with the Foundation’s launch comes our first-ever annual giving campaign:
The HIMpact Campaign
This campaign is the engine that will drive the Foundation’s vision into reality. It’s how we fund the mission — not just to sustain F3 Austin, but to scale it. To bring real resources to the real needs of men in our city.
What we’ve built together is powerful. But what we leave behind could be even greater.
Every one of us has gained something from F3 Austin — strength, brotherhood, clarity, purpose. Now it’s our turn to give back — to turn our shared experience into lasting impact.
The HIMpact Campaign is how we do that. It’s how we multiply what’s been poured into us, ensuring the next generation doesn’t just inherit a workout... but a movement. The opportunity is in front of us. The mission is ours to carry forward. And with your help, we’re ready to get to work.

Our HIMpact Goals
This campaign is your chance to step up and help us achieve two powerful goals that will set the tone for the future of the Austin HIM Foundation:
Raise $25,000 to fuel mission-driven projects in 2025 | Recruit 43 men to join the |
This includes initiatives that support F3 Austin’s internal growth, enhance our reach to men in need, and deepen our ability to serve the community around us. To keep things fun (and a little spicy), we’re structuring this as a friendly competition between AOs. Every AO has its own team. Donate to your AO’s page, rep your home turf, and help your crew outpace the rest. 👉 Donate + Join Your AO Team Now: https://austinhimfoundation.org/F3Austin.html (Click your AO, drop your donation, and watch your leaderboard climb.) | We’re building the HIM Service Corps, a team of 43 volunteers who will help lead the work behind the scenes. If you’ve got skills in event planning, project management, finance, marketing, communication, ops, or logistics — or if you’re just ready to lend a strong back and open hands — we need you. 👉 Sign up to Serve Here: https://pointapp.org/orgs/6797 |
We’ve got two big ways for you to get your questions answered and dive deeper into the vision:
Slack AMA
Join the conversation now in #him-ama on Slack. Drop your questions anytime — the Foundation Board will be actively responding throughout the day on Wednesday, May 15.
Town Hall Meeting
We’re hosting a live session on Thu. 5/22 7pm [LINK]. You’ll hear the full vision, how funds will be used, and how you can play a part — whether you give, volunteer, or lead.
F3 has always been free. But what if it could also be fully resourced?
What if we had the means to stand in the gap when a brother is struggling with addiction, job loss, or mental health? What if we had the firepower to rally men in response to disaster, to support our servicemen, or to mentor the next generation of young men in Austin?
Let’s HIMpact Austin together.
SYITG,
The Austin HIM Foundation Board
