AUM Mission Christmas Project |
Imagine what it would be like if you could not afford to give even a single present to your child for Christmas. Now imagine that you and your children did not have a home and were forced to live in a rescue mission like Atlanta's own Atlanta Union Mission (AUM). This year over 150 women & children will call the Atlanta Union Mission home. Some of these women have been victims of battery and abuse, some have sought shelter at the AUM for drug or alcohol related problems, and some just have no where to go. The AUM provides them with food, shelter, clothing, counseling, and much more, to help them get their lives back on track. The Atlanta Union Mission receives donations of toys, and clothing, so the children there do not go without food, shelter or presents at Christmas. Their mothers, however, have no jobs or money, and are unable to give Christmas presents to their own children! |
You can help us restore dignity to these women by helping them shop for, and give to their own children this Christmas! For 14 years, Resurrecting Hope's "AUM Phoenix Project" has raised money to help these women give their children Christmas presents. Our goal every year is to raise enough money to give each mother a $100.00 gift certificate per child, and take them shopping for their children before Christmas. If we have the funds available, we try to give gift certificates to each of the mothers in the shelter, including those whose children are not living there with them in the shelter. Any unused funds will be applied to our next home make-over. 100% of all funds raised go directly to the women or to help fund our other projects throughout the year. There is no paid staff at Resurrecting Hope, Inc. Please click on About Us for more information about Resurrecting Hope, Inc., what we do, and on the link About The AUM to see the incredible work they are doing to help Atlanta's homeless community. Read the Letter of Recommendation written by former Atlanta Union Mission CEO David Coleman. We need money the most! Last year our goal was $10,000.00 & we raised over $14,600.00! That made a lot of women and children happy! (Be sure to browse through our picture archive to see where your money actually goes!). This year our goal is to raise $17,000.00 so that we can help more people. Please search your heart, and your wallet, for a donation of any size will not only provide gifts for the children, but dignity to the mothers, by allowing them to give to their children this Christmas. Our donation deadline is December 18th, 2009. We will be taking the women to shop at a local Walmart on Saturday, December 19th, 2009 For information on volunteering Click Here.
