Welcome!
Austin Junior Forum (AJF) is a non-profit volunteer organization supporting women, children, and the elderly in the Austin, Texas, area through community service and fund raising. Learn more about how we use our #powers4good.
AJF serves the community in many different ways, from hands-on community service work to raising funds to provide grants to charities and non-profits in our community. We partner with several local organizations to prepare meals, foster education and creativity, provide comfort and hope where needed, and celebrate triumph over adversity. In addition to volunteering with local charities and non-profits, we also run a community service project called the Teddy Bear Program, which provides stuffed Teddy Bears and Dalmatians to Austin's emergency services agencies for children in crisis situations. Our annual fundraiser, Christmas at the Caswell House, raises funds that are distributed to area charities and non-profits through our Grants Program and helps support the historic Daniel H. Caswell house.

The Caswell House
Built in 1900 and a Designated Historic Structure, the Daniel H. Caswell House has provided a venue for many events such as wedding and fundraisers over the past 45 years. The revenue from these events provides much of the financial support for the historic home and also hosts AJF’s annual event, Christmas at the Caswell House.
Teddy Bear Program
AJF used last year's record breaking donation to purchase 3000 Teddy Bears and Dalmatians for the emergency services of Austin and Travis County.
