Leading by example, Earl and Steve Austin promote a corporate culture of giving back to the community.  Every year a group of 10 or more employees participate in the United Way Day of Caring and hold a lunch and learn during their campaign rally offering an opportunity for United Way agencies to meet staff and share information about their mission.  Over the past 15 years, employees of Austin Associates (a staff of 32) have invested $185,144 in our community through the United Way.  Austin Associates is very proud of this community and thanks the United Way of Androscoggin for honoring the firm with the 2011Spirit of the Androscoggin Award.
