About us

A foundation where compassion lives on

Austin Carpenter lived with a giving heart and a deep care for animals. He didn’t talk about his kindness — he just did it. From actually rescuing dogs himself to funding emergency care for animals he’d never met, Austin showed up quietly in meaningful ways.

At the Lunchbox Foundation, we continue his legacy by providing financial support to animal rescues. One grant, one rescue, one act of compassion at a time, we help them save animal lives.
