WHAT
WE DO
Our Goals
The Ausome Allen team hosts events throughout the year to raise awareness and funds for special needs of all ages and abilities as well as their families. We send special needs to summer camp for experiences they have always dreamt of and because this has done so very well, we decided to build a one-of-a-kind accessible playground. A place that brings everyone together, creates lifelong friendships of all abilities, a place for special needs of all ages, and a destination that turns wants and needs into an everyday opportunity. This ausome playground will have a wheelchair accessible treehouse, therapy and workout equipment available, educational nature trail, birthday party rooms and so much more! All of these dreams wouldn’t be possible without my community and the help of sponsors and donors. The amazing city of Weatherford has graciously given us Holland Lake Park where we will keep the historical features to create this one of a kind ausome park! This playground will be a landmark for people all over to come and experience. The two-story treehouse will be accessible all the way around for wheelchairs and walkers to overlook and park that was made for them. The playground flooring will have easy access all the way around including the informative ausome nature trail that will have educational stop and learn points that will be provided by Hartin Tree Service. Learning about the flowers, trees, grass and animals you might see in this area will help make this park more home! Learning to communicate from sign language to nonverbal will be available at the playground, giving family and friends the ability to communicate back and forth with a new friend! The stock pond that is there now will also allow access for wheelchairs to fish!! The cutting horse capital, farm and ranch playground will be one for all to see and experience.
Our forever goal is to build a housing community built just for special needs heroes! A place they can call home! Where things are made just for them! This ranch will have onsite caregivers and tiny homes accommodating for the hero to live in. They will be able to attend church as well as going to work throughout the week! This ranch will also host ranch camps that the people living onsite will help run along with volunteers!
Softball Tournament
The AUsome Allen Foundation is proud to announce that we host one of the LARGEST softball tournaments in Parker County. Each tournament we break our own record!!!
This was how we began our fundraising with our softball family! on September 24th and September 25th 2022 we had over 52 teams show up to spread love and awareness for special needs of all ages and abilities. All proceeds raised during the softball tournament go to sending special needs to summer camp, and our tournaments are known to be one of the most fun tournaments to participate in. We are family friendly and encourage you to bring your family and friends out to leave with a happy heart. There is so much to do to keep everyone entertained. Bounce house, yard games with prizes, vendor shopping, face painting, henna tattoos, food, sensory stations and surprise guests!
We have hosted several very successful softball tournaments bringing in over 20,000 people, with the total of 138 teams entered, (men and co-ed teams) 98 ausome people placed on teams, vendor shopping, yard games with prizes, dunking booth, bounce house, henna tattoos, face painting and so much more to keep everyone smiling, full of encouragement and coming back. There is no ability we cannot accommodate for so an ausome person can get to play. All abilities are encouraged to come out and join us.

Community Involvement
We are always looking for ways to get involved in the community. From school functions such as fall festivals and roo festivals, to large community events like National Night Out, trunk or treats serving at center of hope and more. We would be honored to be a part of your festivities! We bring face painting and or henna tattoos, sensory station, games and fun all while educating about our foundation, what we plan on doing and ways to include special needs!
We encourage kids of all ages to come out and participate in our events to help bring happiness to special needs but also joy into your kids' heart! Changing the world one smile and helping hand at a time!
Resources
Our foundation not only sends special needs of all ages and abilities to summer camp, and are building a special needs playground, and plan on build forever housing community, but we also have been blessed with electric wheelchairs that are ready for their homes. These chairs are in perfect condition with all of the bells and whistles If you know someone in need, we would be happy to donate it to them!
The AUsome Allen Foundation has made connections with The Parker Couty Hospital District so we are now able to provide an abundance of resources to special needs and their families. We are working on a plan to host monthly luncheons/gatherings to expand our knowledge and resources onto those who need them! From pregnancy, therapy, dental, emotional support and more! These gatherings will provide hope, fun and resources for special needs of all ages and abilities!
