About Caritas of Austin
Caritas of Austin is a highly helpful organization to the community, particularly recognized for their outstanding job in providing meals to those in need. They serve 250-300 homeless persons every single day and offer various services to ensure their clients are well taken care of. The food they serve is generally good, although it would be beneficial to have plates for takeaway and better signage of the daily menu. The staff, including Sebastian and Chris who coordinate kitchen activities, are respected for their dedication and bring a sense of humor to their work. Ashlyn Riley, the deputy director, is also noted for her support. While the team is committed, additional training in trauma-informed care could enhance their ability to assist disabled veterans dealing with PTSD. Many volunteers appreciate the experience and encourage others to donate time or food, as the organization is always grateful for the help it receives.
THIS PLACE IS AMAZING THE STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS IN HERE ARE DOWN TO EARTH AND VERY HELPFUL. Well because poor unhoused and less fortunate ppl have no money to dine in actual restaurants. This is our five star restaurant. And Monday thru Friday they serve a meal just like mom would cook. I have nothing bad to say but thank you all so much.
They do great job here for the homeless and humanity. They serve 250-300 homeless persons every single day days. I had the Privilege to volunteer preparing food and serve 5 times already and will continue to serve once a week moving forward long term. Sebastian and Chris whom coordinate the kitchen activities are tireless and funny. Ashlyn Riley , the deputy Director of this location is great. I highly recommend everyone to donate time for this good cause since they always can use help. Best is to download their friendly VOMO app to check for weekly openings to join.
This is a good group of people that help out the disadvantaged in homeless. I was there to make a leftover food donation and they're always so grateful. If you have quantities of good condition food etc consider these good folks
