The holidays are not the same without a place to call home and the comforts that come with it. Yet, as affordability declines and economic inequality worsens, countless Georgians are being displaced or sacrificing to make ends meet.
Home for the Holidays is an end-of-year campaign to raise unrestricted funds to help more Georgians in need and build a culture of compassion while giving back is top of mind.
Spread the word. Maximize impact.
And when you donate by midnight, our friends at CBRE will match the first $5,000!

Today is #GAgives on #GivingTuesday, our state’s largest fundraising movement. Here are five reasons why I hope you’ll join me in supporting @HOPEAtlanta. Give by midnight, and our friends at CBRE will match the first $5,000!
➡️ Homelessness is increasing in Atlanta; more than 700 of our neighbors are unsheltered.
➡️ Atlanta has the greatest income inequality of any large U.S. city, combined with a shortage of affordable housing.
➡️ A third of the unhoused population are 55 and older.
➡️ More than 40,000 Georgia veterans live in poverty, and 664 are homeless.
➡️ HOPE Atlanta works 1-1 with people facing homelessness, including seniors, veterans, families, and people with disabilities, to secure stable housing and empower them to reach self-sufficiency.

#Homelessness has no place in #Atlanta, and we need to stop pretending it’s an inevitable part of society. The fact is that change is possible.
Case in point: Unprecedented COVID-19 mobilization and collaboration significantly reduced homelessness and previewed what we’re capable of achieving when working together. But homelessness is increasing again, and now is the time to seize momentum, scale our efforts, and effect lasting change.
Please join me in supporting @HOPEAtlanta, a 123-year-old nonprofit with a bold vision for transforming our communities by supporting and empowering those experiencing homelessness.

Imagine trying to find employment with your young child in tow while couch-surfing and teetering on the edge of #homelessness. This is the reality for plenty of our neighbors like HOPE Atlanta client Jarvis, who thankfully has transitioned to permanent #housing.
@HOPEAtlanta has a bold vision for permanently transforming lives and communities. Here’s how every donation makes a difference:
- $50 could provide a MARTA card to help someone like Jarvis get to work for two weeks
- $125 could cover groceries for a family at risk of homelessness, so they don’t have to choose between food and rent
- $250 could help a family transition to stable housing by covering the utility deposits
- $400 could prevent a family from sleeping on the streets for a week by providing emergency lodging
Please join me in supporting HOPE Atlanta’s Visions of HOPE so that more neighbors like Jarvis can reclaim their self-sufficiency and thrive.
