WHAT WE DO
01
INTERNAL SERVICE
During football games, our chapter serves the band by carrying medicine kits, supplying water, and selling merchandise. The majority of the proceeds from this merchandise benefit our chosen philanthropy.
02
EXTERNAL SERVICE
Our chapter also serves the city of Austin in music and community. Some of our favorite volunteer events include joining high school bands at football games and middle school bands in rehearsals, helping out at the Austin Animal Center, and working with the UT Farm Stand! We have many different opportunities to serve.
03
PHILANTHROPY
Our chapter’s fundraising efforts primarily benefit our chosen philanthropy, which will be announced soon! Other money we raise goes towards scholarships supporting TBS members and non-TBS members in the Longhorn Band.
04
SISTERHOOD
Our chapter promotes equality and diversity, such as empowering women in music.
