Giving Tuesday is November 30 |
|
Giving Tuesday, November 30, is a global day of giving and generosity. It was established in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good.
Last year generous HomeAid Atlanta donors raised over $1,000 on Giving Tuesday. This year, will you consider joining the movement with a one-time $20 tax-deductible donation to HomeAid Atlanta?

HomeAid CareKits
On November 12, volunteers from Ashton Woods Homes and Mortgage Bankers Association of Georgia (MBAG) packed 1,000 HomeAid CareKits.. The CareKits were delivered to Crossroads Community Ministries where they are currently being distributed to people living on the streets. CareKits provide a little dignity and sustenance to those in need. Thanks to Bank of America for providing the funds to purchase the items, as well as to Stanley Martin Homes for their generous contribution of hundreds of pairs of socks and underwear (see below). We are truly thankful for your generosity and for all the help in assembling each kit.

Stanley Martin Homes Delivers Dignity
Stanley Martin Homes Atlanta Division has pledged funds raised from an employee furniture auction to HomeAid Atlanta. The September model home furniture auction raised over $3,500 in support of HomeAid Atlanta’s mission.
A portion of the funds raised has already already been used to purchase socks and underwear in support of HomeAid Atlanta’s outreach efforts. On November 12, HomeAid volunteers packed 1,000 CareKits for Crossroads Community Ministries (CCM), an organization that provides a variety of services for people experiencing homelessness. The CareKits included the donated socks, and CCM will distribute the underwear to clients in need. The socks and underwear donations provided by Stanley Martin Homes are essential items that families and individuals living on the streets or in homeless shelters rarely have, but desperately need. Along with HomeAid CareKits, socks and underwear help provide comfort and dignity to those struggling most.
Additional funds went in support of the Thanks for Giving Drive, and the remaining funds will be applied to HomeAid Atlanta’s area of greatest need.
