August 2024
What an exciting August we had filled with so many HAPPY GAMEDAYS!
For our first HGD, we partnered with Georgia Kids Belong to take a family of 4 to a Braves game in the DELTA 360 club. The family created many memories with the best seats in the house and all the food they could eat! The icing on the cake is that the Braves pulled off an exciting win in the final innings! We also partnered with Georgia Kids Belong to send another group to a different Braves Game in August.
For our 2nd event, we partnered with Winshape Homes to send a family of 7 to Rock City in Chattanooga! They all had so much fun and had a blast creating memories and seeing all the amazing things Rock City had to offer.
For our 3rd and 4th events, we partnered with Murphy Harpst to send groups of awesome young adults to a Braves and Falcons preseason game. A fun time was had by all!
For our final event, we were able to provide 2 tickets to the UGA vs Clemson football game in Atlanta to a young man and his mentor! They are huge UGA fans and were so excited to be a part of the first game of the season for the DAWGS!
We are so thankful for all of the support we continue to receive from our friends, family and community and could not provide these memories without you!
