DONATE TO HUNGER WALK RUN

HOLY REDEEMER STUDENTS RAISE NEARLY $9,000 FOR SVDP GEORGIA, PARTICIPATING IN HUNGER WALK RUN!
This student was a Champion, raising over $500!
Each of these students raised hundreds of dollars in donations!
The Holy Redeemer seventh-grade classes have a tradition of supporting the Atlanta Community Food Bank’s annual Hunger Walk Run. This year, students sent emails to family and friends to
solicit donations for their participation in the virtual event.


On the Thursday before the walk, Holy Redeemer students wore their Hunger Walk t-shirts to school to show their support for the event and were fed a hunger meal of broth, rice, and a slice of bread to show their solidarity with the hungry in the world. On Sunday, March 7th, students walked or ran the 5k with family and friends.

The students raised nearly $9,000 to support
St. Vincent de Paul Georgia!


SVdP Georgia and the teachers of Holy Redeemer are proud of the student's amazing support and efforts to help end homelessness in our area.

Client Story
 
A RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS
GEORGE'S STORY

George was a hard worker and enjoyed his job, but one morning his bike broke and that was his only mode of transportation. George ended up missing a lot of days of work because of difficulty finding rides and became unable to pay his rent.

One day, George decided to reach out to St. Vincent de Paul Georgia where he was connected with his local conference. The conference provided $600 in rental assistance but also wanted to help George find a bike as that was key to keeping full employment. The Conference members decided to stop by Play it Again Sports and a couple of other stores to check out the bike options. One of the caseworkers posted on George’s Apartment Facebook page asking if anyone was selling a 26″ mountain bike (which was what George had before) that was in good condition.
