Community Service: The Atlanta Way

MLA’s tradition is to leave the host venue better than we found it. With this in mind, MLA’s Local Assistance Committee identified the United Way Atlanta’s homeless initiative, Street-to-Home, as this years’ service project.

On any given night in Atlanta, more than 5,000 people are in shelters or on the street; most of whom are unable to access the support and services they need to help end their homelessness.

By working with housing and assessment center partners, United Way Atlanta’s Street-to-Home initiative helps about 500 Atlantans a year receive access to housing and services in an effort to end homelessness.  By providing housing and case management, the United Way program helps people achieve long-term housing stability and self-sufficiency.

Please donate using this link by Wednesday, May 23, 2018. All proceeds will be delivered to the Street-To-Home program at the conclusion of MLA ‘18. When donating, you will receive a thank you acknowledgement.
