TOGETHER CALIFORNIA: A VILLAGE FOR BROTHERS AND SISTERS FUNDRAISER

“We are delighted to do our part in creating the first Together California village.

The Austrian-American Council West has a long history of helping children and families in need. We are proud to be part of this landmark model of foster care, which originated in Austria after World War II. Our Council and its members are committed to and focus all our resources on developing the Community Center, which will be our legacy of support, love, and care for so many children in need.”
