PICK WITH AUSTIN is a nonprofit charity corporation that operates in the memory of Texas teen guitarist, Alan Carter Villaruz-Curley.

The purpose and mission of PICK WITH AUSTIN is to help educate and elevate a community awareness about a growing epidemic of youth depression and suicide.

We use Alan's Gift of Music to draw attention and to enhance this awareness.We provide donated guitars to kids and teens in hospitals, in youth groups and ministries, and/or to those who have been identified in some way of being potentially "at risk" of depression.
