THE DAVID PHILLIPS FOUNDATION

Welcome To

The David Phillips Foundation

The David Phillips Foundation removes barriers for children to participate in sports and fitness programs, and provides opportunities to PLAY for kids who wouldn't otherwise have access.

Our Mission

The David Phillips Foundation supports and uplifts children and their families through after-school enrichment programs that allow them to heal, grow, and play.

The David Phillips Foundation improves the lives of children and their families, strengthens neighborhood ties, and builds community, through recreation, sports, and opportunities to “play.” Further, we work to support and uplift children and families who have lost a parent, by providing resources, and making connections with additional support providers in their communities.

Amplify Austin Day is March 5-6

And Early Giving is NOW OPEN!

This year, we invite you to join us on March 5-6 for the biggest giving event in Central Texas, Amplify Austin Day. On Amplify Austin Day, you can make an impact on our collective community with a gift of $5 or more in support of DPF, as well as 700 local nonprofits!
