Our Mission

On May 12, 2012 Austin Brashears finished what is one of the most epic stories of all time: his life story. He lived colorfully and beautifully during his 21 years and painted pictures all over the world of his kindness, generosity, and positive spirit. We have decided to begin the stage of moving forward to embark on a grand adventure to create new memories with Austin every day. It can be something as little as trying a new flavor of coffee or going underwater go-cart racing in his honor. We invite you to play with us, laugh with us, and take risks with us. We encourage you to put your Austin foot forward and begin to live with Austin and his energetic spirit as your guide.

He needs our help to finish his epic adventure.

We’ll be posting our adventures here for you to read and hopefully be inspired by, but we want to hear from you too! When you do something amazing and incredible or just a little something you know that Austin would LOVE or appreciate, throw on your Austin merch (v-neck, tank, or bracelet) and take a picture! Write up a post and email it to us at doitforaustin@gmail.com and we’ll share it with everyone!

Have a great Austin Adventure Day,

Sage, Brittany, Cole, & Shannon

Softball Bliss


I am the librarian at Eastwood Elementary School, where Austin attended. Every year we play a softball game, teachers against the 6th grade students. I usually play but am always pretty nervous. NOT this year! I was ready to go...not nearly as nervous as usual! I was ready to give it my all! So how did I do? I made it on base my first up, made a pretty awesome catch and had another solid hit! How did our team do? We beat those 6th graders and I have to say it was the funnest game I've played in the last 5 years at Eastwood! Thanks Austin for helping me to have the confidence I needed to go out and play my best and enjoy the game. Did it for you Austy! I love you and miss you. Now on to the next adventure:) I'm looking forward to hiking with your mom and Sherri this summer. More to come!

Love you,
Janet
