The Austin Deaf Club is a social organization located in Austin, Texas, that primarily serves the deaf and hard of hearing community. It provides a gathering place and various activities for individuals who are deaf or have hearing impairments to come together, socialize, and participate in events. The term "501(c)(7)" refers to a specific tax-exempt status granted by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the United States. Nonprofit organizations can apply for tax-exempt status under various sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and a 501(c)(7) designation specifically applies to social and recreational clubs. When an organization is recognized as a 501(c)(7) nonprofit, it means that it is exempt from federal income tax, as long as its activities are primarily focused on providing social and recreational opportunities for its members. However, donations to a 501(c)(7) organization are not typically tax-deductible for the donor since the organization is not organized for charitable, educational, or other similar purposes. In the case of the Austin Deaf Club, being recognized as a 501(c)(7) organization signifies that its main purpose is to foster social connections and recreational activities for its deaf and hard of hearing members. This tax-exempt status helps the club operate more efficiently by relieving it of certain tax obligations and potentially attracting more members who can benefit from its services.

We are open on Friday and Saturday nights from 7pm-2am. NOTE: Vary on business needs.

The Austin Deaf Club is a community organization that provides a space for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community to socialize, network, and participate in various activities and events.
