AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — U.S. Money Reserve, one of the nation’s largest precious metals distributors, today announced that Chief Operating Officer Christol Farris participated as a featured dancer in the 2025 Dancing with the Stars Austin gala. The event, which pairs local community leaders with professional dancers, exclusively benefits the Center for Child Protection, a nationally accredited children’s advocacy center and the only nonprofit in Travis County involved in the investigation and prosecution of crimes against children.

“I am honored to support the Center for Child Protection. Knowing that every step taken on the dance floor is raising critical funds for the children who need it most makes an already enjoyable event even more meaningful,” said Farris. “I dedicate this effort to reinforcing the message that children are seen, believed, and deserve every opportunity to heal.”

Farris’ participation stands as a part of U.S. Money Reserve’s enduring commitment to child advocacy and its corporate role as an official Awareness Ambassador for the Center for Child Protection. By engaging in this fundraiser, the company aims to amplify the Center’s mission of ending child abuse through education, advocacy, and community engagement.

Proceeds from this annual event directly support the Center for Child Protection’s mission to reduce trauma for children during the investigation and prosecution of crimes against them.

“We are grateful for Christol’s participation in the event and for U.S. Money Reserve’s continued dedication to our mission,” said Michael Torres, CEO of the Center for Child Protection. “When local leaders and companies step up to raise awareness and support for child abuse victims, they demonstrate that protecting children is a core value of our community.”
