    Looking to do some good for others, citizen? Wish you had more to give than you do? This is the day in which AmplifyATX.org, the online platform that makes it easy to donate to local nonprofits, supercharges their philanthropic site with special matches that will amplify the value of your gift. Amplify Austin Day is the biggest day of giving in Central Texas, raising $102.7 million for the local community since 2013, and this year you can be part of the seven-county crowd spreading funds (and, consequently, joy) across our river city. – Wayne Alan Brenner
