We work tirelessly as mentors, fundraisers, and volunteers to create the greatest positive impact in the Central Texas Community. Service is a principle that helped form the foundations of this organization, and a principle that follows our members after graduation.

HOLDUP
City Wide Hold Up is the annual fall philanthropy event of the Texas Wranglers, which benefits Easterseals Lonestar. This event 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 Hold Up, when the original goal of $10,000 was smashed, the Texas Wranglers has been dedicated to improving the event and improving the lives of the people served by EasterSeals, whose dedication over the last 27 years has enabled us to raise over $475,000.

Donating to City Wide Hold Up enables us to support our philanthropic organization, Easterseals Lonestar. Donating is a powerful way to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals with disabilities and their families. Your contributions to this remarkable organization have a direct and profound impact on the services and programs provided to those in need.
By donating to Easterseals of Central Texas, you support a wide range of crucial programs that empower individuals with disabilities to lead independent, fulfilling lives. These programs include early intervention services for children, vocational training for adults, specialized therapies, and accessibility resources. Your donation enables Easterseals to continue providing these essential services, ensuring that individuals with disabilities have the tools and support they need to reach their full potential.
Furthermore, your generosity helps create a more inclusive and compassionate community. Easterseals Lonestar actively promotes awareness, acceptance, and understanding of disabilities, breaking down barriers and fostering a society that embraces diversity. Your donation not only supports the programs directly but also contributes to raising awareness and shifting perceptions about disabilities, ultimately creating a more inclusive and supportive environment for all.
TWO-STEP
THROWDOWN
In January of 2016, the Fall 2015 Texas Mavericks presented the inaugural Two Step Throwdown at Ironwood Hall. They were able to raise a net donation of over $18,500 for Mona Foundation and had over 550 people attend the event. Due to it's success, and the vision of the whole organization, this event was officially passed on as the official Spring philanthropy event of the Texas Wranglers.
