Good Party ATX teamed up with Friends of AAC to volunteer at Austin Animal Center. We stuffed kongs, walked dogs, cuddled cats, and got to see the teamwork that goes into helping animals in need at the shelter. At the Lustre Pearl East after party, one lucky dog got adopted by one of the volunteers - congratulations & happy tails, Bacchus! Learn how to get involved with Austin Animal Center, and check out the adorable, adoptable pets here!

'Tis the season to carb load for a good cause (that's a thing, right?). Every Tuesday in November, Home Slice Pizza is opening its dine-in doors and serving up pizza, drinks, and good times - all to benefit some incredible charities in town. Grab a pizza, a sub, or even a salad if you dare, and Home Slice Pizza will donate a portion of sales to these nonprofits. If you're feeling lucky (or charitable) you can also purchase raffle tickets for a shot at winning a year's worth of free pizza.
