Christine Herlin believes in the power of community to inspire positive change. As the Manager of Nonprofit & Customer Relations at I Live Here I Give Here, Christine works directly with over 740 local nonprofit organizations to ensure that they are empowered and equipped to rally Austin's giving community. Christine leads the nonprofit arm of Amplify Austin Day, which has raised $57M over the past 7 years for hundreds of local nonprofits. She also serves as a Community Leader in the global #GivingTuesday movement and has co-developed the annual campaign for Central Texas, which encourages everyone in Central Texas to take action for good. Over the past two years, Central Texans have completed over 5.2 million actions for good and given $2 million during the month of November. Christine is a native Texan, which naturally makes her a diehard fan of salsa, open skies, and big hats. Growing up here has also taught her about the importance of lifting up your neighbors and has instilled a deep appreciation for the history, culture, and beauty of the Hill Country. Christine values that her work with I Live Here I Give Here encourages locals to choose generosity and give back to the people and places that make Central Texas home for them. 

Christine joined the I Live Here I Give Here team in 2015 and was promoted to the role of Manager of Nonprofit & Customer Relations in 2017. Christine graduated from Trinity University with a degree in History and Art History. Previously, she interned with the Witte Museum, Artpace San Antonio and the Big Give S.A.
