Provide hope this GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday is the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It serves as a powerful reminder of the impact we can make in the lives of others. Falling on November 28, 2023, this day marks the beginning of the charitable season and inspires people worldwide to give back to their communities.  

In Atlanta, the significance of GivingTuesday resonates deeply, especially in addressing the challenges faced by individuals without a place to call home. Thousands of people in Atlanta find themselves without shelter and facing harsh conditions including hunger, exposure to extreme temperatures, and limited access to essential resources. 

Why your donation matters 

Donating to Atlanta Mission provides relief and support to those facing homelessness in Atlanta. Your gift can make a tangible impact by: 

• Providing shelter and basic needs: When a person walks in from the streets, their most immediate need is basic physical care. Your donation provides warm meals, shelter, showers, laundry facilities, medical care, and clothing. This creates a dignified environment for those seeking refuge.
• Supporting education and vocational programs: People experiencing homelessness face barriers to education and employment. At Atlanta Mission, we work towards breaking down these barriers by offering vocational training and job placement services. Your donation will contribute to these programs that empower our clients to rebuild their lives.
• Fostering community and healthy relationships: Building a sense of community is vital for people transitioning out of homelessness. Your donations allow us to create community integration, social connections, and a sense of belonging, which all foster long-term stability.

As we approach GivingTuesday, consider making a difference in the lives of those without a home. Your support can provide a glimmer of hope this holiday season.

Here’s how you can help: 

1. Make a one-time donation. Every dollar goes a long way in providing essential services and support for those we serve. And this year, we’re matching every dollar you give, up to $50,000! Which means your gift will have twice the impact. 
2. Become a monthly donor. Consider the long-term impact of your generosity by becoming a Restoration Partner monthly donor. Monthly contributions provide a steady and reliable source of hope each month. And, when you become a Restoration Partner in the month of November, you’ll also receive a FREE t-shirt as a thank you from us! Tag us in your photos on social media wearing our shirt and use the hashtag #HopeLivesHereAllYear.
