The Northwest Austin Circle of Friends is proud to be celebrating our 21 st Annual Cheers for Children, raising funds and awareness for Dell Children’s Medical Center and the Texas Child Study Center. Since 2008, all net funds raised from the Cheers event have benefited The Texas Child Study Center (TCSC) Endowment. The TCSC is a collaboration between the University of Texas at Austin Educational Psychology Department and Dell Children’s Medical Center. It was established in 2008 through philanthropic support to help meet the mental health needs of the youth of Central Texas. The TCSC has grown to include a residency training program for future pediatric psychologists and psychiatrists, embedded clinics within all of the major programs at Dell Children’s including the Blood and Cancer Center, Emergency Department, the Obesity Program, and Intensive Care.
Please join us in support of our anniversary and celebration of the 21st annual Cheers for Children Wine, Bourbon and Food Tasting event on Saturday, March 7, 2020 at the Junior League of Austin Community Impact Center. This event lets guests taste fine wines, select bourbons, delicious cuisine from local restaurants and great music.
If you are TABC certified, we will be asking you to pour wine for our guests at our wine tasting booths. The shift is from 6:30-10:30pm, but may be shorter depending on how many volunteers we get. We will provide you with information about our wines that our guests will be sampling beforehand. If you are interested in becoming TABC certified for this event, Northwest Austin Circle of Friends will reimburse our volunteers with proof of registration and completion of a TABC course.
We greatly appreciate your help in any way! We are also able to sign off for any community service requirements or accommodate for volunteer hours for clubs and honors societies. For more information, contact the admin of this event.

Mission Statement
The Northwest Austin Circle of Friends is a community-volunteer support group of the Children's Medical Center Foundation. Funds raised by our chapter benefit the Texas Child Study Center Endowment at Dell Children’s Medical Center.
Description
The Northwest Austin Circle of Friends is proud to be celebrating our 20 th year of raising funds and awareness for Dell Children’s Medical Center. This state-of-the-art facility offers children in a 46-county service area access to a full continuum of care from the area’s prime pediatric specialists - regardless of their family’s ability to pay. With the generous support from the community, our volunteer group has successfully raised over $1,000,000 to date.
Moving forward, Dell Children’s Medical Center will convert an existing wing of the hospital into an inpatient behavioral health unit. Currently in Central Texas, children with mental health issues have very few options for inpatient care. To meet this increasing need in our community, Dell Children’s will create a place where children and adolescents with emotional, developmental, and behavioral challenges can get the care they need in a safe environment specifically designed for kids.
