Living the Mad Dash

Calling all Do-Gooders! Want a super easy way to help others, that you can literally do from your phone? Like…right now? Pop over to www.landahandoff.org to help us raise supplies for students heading back to school. One backpack with supplies for an elementary student can cost upwards of $75. With your help, we can assemble enough elements to donate 8 complete backpacks, and every little bit helps. Give what you can, keep the good vibes. We’ll take care of the rest. #landahandoff #northfultoncommunitycharities #bethechange #nfcc

Behind the scenes of our #handofftohandsonatl Book Drive. There are 1,353 books in these boxes. We’re grateful for the partnership with @handsonatl to get these books distributed. Also, sending high fives to all the donors and supporters- we see you! #handsonatlanta #bethechange #livingthemaddash

We did it! The #handofftohandsonatl Book Drive has wrapped. Going well beyond our target of 250, the total hand off was 1,353 books. 😳That’s one thousand, three hundred and fifty three books that are already being distributed by way of Hands On Atlanta. Just in time for summer. This is amazing! We appreciate every like, every share, every encouraging word and, of course, every donation! Support came in from all over the country: from Washington state, to Connecticut, Miami, my hometown Gainesville, FL and right here across the Greater Atlanta area. Way to go! We thank you. Head to landahandoff.org for more information. #handsonatlanta #bethechange #livingthemaddash
