2222CONA is a grass-roots organization of neighborhood residents. We rely on volunteers to donate their time and efforts toward our mission, and we need funds to support our research and obtain professional expertise when required. Please help in whatever way you can today!
We plan to add a feature for secure electronic donations in the near future. Until then we would gladly receive a check for any amount, payable to 2222CONA, at the following address:
2222CONA
P.O. Box # 29602
Austin, TX 78755
If you are a resident of a neighborhood, please note the neighborhood name in the Memo area of your check.
The effectiveness of 2222CONA is driven by the people involved. We are very fortunate to have many talented, educated, experienced professionals and individuals that have given an extraordinary amount of effort toward our cause. We need every resident in every member neighborhood, and other neighborhoods in the area, to be aware of and join in the 2222CONA efforts as much as possible. Most residents lead very busy lives, but if everyone does a little bit we can leverage our strength to the fullest. Following are some specific tasks or duties that we particularly need help with.
Please write to volunteer@2222cona.org if you can help with any of these tasks, or offer other services or ways that you can help. Let us know if you have interest in a particular project or a particular area...we are very flexible in finding a way for everyone to contribute to the effort!
