12th Annual City Wide Hold Up
November 14, 2009
City Wide Hold Up is the annual fundraiser held by the Texas Wranglers to benefit Easter Seals Central Texas. The event draws hundreds of volunteers and sends them to street corners throughout Austin to “hold up” passing motorists for change. Over the past ten years, with the help of over 6200 volunteers, City Wide Hold Up has raised over $330,000 for Easter Seals in only 50 hours! The Texas Wranglers goal for 2009 is $40,000, which can be met and surpassed with your support. This would put the grand total over a milestone $370,000!
City Wide Hold Up was the original idea of Marence Daniel Anderson who became a Wrangler in the fall of 1996. Unfortunately, M.D. passed away before his vision was realized, but his closest friends and family became determined to fulfill his dream. Since the first City Wide, when the original goal of $10,000 was smashed, the Texas Wranglers have been dedicated to improving the event and improving the lives of the people served by Easter Seals.
