Supporting Rescue, Education, and Healing: Our Donation to Austin Farm Sanctuary

At UPLIFT Desk, we know that everyone deserves a space that promotes learning, healing, and meaningful connection. That's why we're excited to support Austin Farm Sanctuary, a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing farmed animals and transforming how our community views and treats them. Through powerful education and advocacy initiatives, they're building a more compassionate world—one rescued animal and one changed heart at a time.

Who Austin Farm Sanctuary serves

Austin Farm Sanctuary provides a safe, loving home for farmed animals who have been rescued from neglect, abuse, or abandonment. Their residents include pigs, cows, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and turkeys, each with a unique story and personality. Today, they care for over 240 residents across 95 acres of peaceful Texas countryside.

But their mission goes beyond sanctuary. Through educational programming and community outreach, they aim to inspire a new understanding of animals as individuals with personalities, needs, and the capacity for connection. Their work challenges harmful norms and encourages mindfulness in how we view, value, and treat farmed animals.

Our donation to Austin Farm Sanctuary

Through our monthly community donation program, we provided standing desks and ergonomic stools to equip Austin Farm Sanctuary's new learning center and chicken hospital. These spaces serve as the heart of their educational mission—where visitors of all ages discover the individual stories of rescued animals and learn how they can become advocates for animal welfare.

Our furniture donation creates versatile, comfortable environments that adapt to diverse learning needs, from interactive workshops and guided tours to veterinary care sessions. By supporting these essential spaces, we're helping AFS expand their reach and continue their vital work of education, healing, and community transformation.

Helping our community

Supporting Austin Farm Sanctuary means investing in the kind of world we all want to live in—one that's kind, inclusive, and rooted in respect for all living beings. Their programs don't just educate; they transform perspectives, helping visitors see farm animals as individuals with unique personalities and stories worth protecting.

By contributing to spaces where education and compassion intersect, we're supporting conversations that matter—about animal welfare, sustainable living, and our shared responsibility to care for vulnerable beings. It's how we stay true to our values while strengthening our Central Texas community.

Looking forward

Austin Farm Sanctuary is creating lasting change for both the animals they rescue and the people they inspire. We're honored to support their mission and eager to see how their educational work continues to expand and touch more lives.

Our commitment through the UPLIFT Desk Donation Program is simple: we'll keep supporting organizations that make a real difference in our community and beyond. Because creating positive change starts with creating the right spaces for it to happen.
