About this Event
Hashtag Lunchbag is a global movement that empowers everyday people to spread love, one lunch bag at a time. On Saturday, June 29th, our Atlanta Chapter is partnering with Usher's New Look a non-profit organization that transforms the lives of under-resourced youth through a comprehensive program which develops passion-driven, global leaders to tackle systemic barriers that prevent teens from graduating from high school and college, to prepare and distribute lunches and toiletries to our neighbors without homes at the Butler Street Community Development Corporation. We'd love for you to serve with us! ♥️
Assembly Start Time: 10:00 AM
Distribution Start Time: 11:30 AM
Location: 17 Jesse Hill Jr Drive NE, Atlanta GA
Details:
Love Notes and Lunch bags
We will begin by decorating the lunch bags and writing short notes of inspiration and encouragement that will go into each lunch bag.
Sandwich Assembly
We will prepare each sandwich with love and package them along with a small sweet treat for the receiver to enjoy! (Each preparer will be properly sanitized and protected.)
Bag Assembly
Each sandwich will be bagged, along with a love note, fruit, water, and other items for the receivers benefit, then prepped for distribution.
Distribution
This is the best part of the entire event! A portion of the sandwiches will be taken to our local Free99 Fridge, and the lunch bags will be passed around the city to those in need. The smiles we get from those we help are absolutely heart-warming! Locations will be provided to make distribution easier.
In addition, we will be collecting the following toiletry items to go into the lunch bags for our neighbors:
- Marta Bus Passes
- Toothbrushes
- Travel size toothpaste
- Travel size hand lotion
- Travel size hand sanitizer
- Deodorant
- Ponchos
- Tents
- Chapstick
- Body wipes
You can bring your item donations on the day of the service event, or send a monetary donation ($hashtaglunchbagatl) and we will happily do the shopping for you!
There will be limited, free parking in the lot beside the venue on the day of the event.
We will have a live DJ providing the jams and a photographer/videographer to capture the cool moments, so be sure to bring your smile!
