Day of Service Lunch - Covenant House- November 16

Covenant House Georgia

By: Alexandra Brouilette | Aug 13, 2019

As part of raising awareness of human trafficking within our chapter, on Saturday, November 16th we are again volunteering  to serve lunch at Covenant House, a local shelter that takes in juveniles who are victims of human trafficking. The Covenant House is an international organization, spanning over 6 countries and 30 cities.  Their Georgia branch opened in 2000 and has served more than 18,000 homeless, runaway and trafficked youth in Atlanta.   At Covenant House, the victims are provided unconditional love and comprehensive support during their formative years so that the youth can and will realize their fullest potential. The youth are empowered to finish high school, start college, gain employment, live independently, and ultimately step out into the world knowing they are prepared to be successful. 

Itinerary: 
- 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM: Prepare Meal
- 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Serve Meal
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lead an Activity 

You are welcome to bring a guest, but attendance is limited to those ages 21 and up. 

To participate, please sign up here. 

For more information or to make a monetary or food/supply donation, please contact Lindsay Drewry

How You Can Help:
- SERVE: Pledge with the Community Outreach Committee to take a stand with MPI Georgia to end human trafficking by serving lunch to 60 youth residents.

For our hotelier members, Covenant House will take used blankets/pillows that a hotel may be discarding, as well as new products. 

Covenant House Georgia
We are much more than a shelter. We provide unconditional love and comprehensive support so that our youth can and will realize their fullest potential. In fact, seeing their potential is our greatest motivation. We are optimistic about the power of a stable, loving environment to inspire a fresh start in their lives. It is a privilege to support our youth during some of their most formative years. We empower them to finish high school, start college, gain employment, live independently, and ultimately step out into the world knowing they are prepared to be successful.
