March 2025
Another busy HAPPY GAMEDAY month is in the books!
We partnered with 3 of our partners in March to provide events and experiences to 18 different kids!
For our first event, we partnered with Georgia Kids Belong to send a family to see Mama Mia at The Fox Theatre!
For our 2nd event, we partnered with Chosen for Life Ministries to send a family of 6 to a UGA basketball game in Athens. They cheered on the DAWGS and had lots of snacks!
For our 3rd event, we partnered with Murphy Harpst Children’s Home to send 6 kids and staff to see the Harlem Globetrotters! Fun was had by all!
We also had the privilege in March to provide 2 scholarships to youth who play Lacrosse through the Allatoona High School Lacrosse Program. This is our second year to provide these scholarships, and we are so excited for these kids to get to play such a great sport!
Our Partners:
Murphy-Harpst is an independent not-for-profit organization committed to meeting the needs of abused and neglected young people through residential treatment, placements in specialized foster care, and community programs that serve at-risk youth and their families. In partnership with the United Methodist Women national office, their services are available to all children regardless of sex, race, color, or creed, and whose needs can be addressed and treated within the scope of program services. Visit them at murphyharpst.org.
Chosen for Life Ministries began ten years ago when a small group of people began to dream of a ministry that could raise awareness and provide support for adoptive families. A lot has happened over the last ten years, but they believe that there is still more to be done. Visit them at chosenforlifeministries.org
Georgia Kids Belong started in 2020 and is a pilot of America’s Kids Belong. Their mission is to improve the experiences and outcomes for Georgia kids in the foster care system. They have great programs to include the I Belong Project, Foster Friendly Businesses and Foster Friendly Faith Communities. To learn more about Georgia Kids Belong, visit their website at About - GA - America's Kids Belong (americaskidsbelong.org).
SO MANY MEMORIES MADE!
We usually have lots of pictures to share! This month, however, everyone was having so much fun that they didn’t stop to take pics! We are so glad they were finding joy and making memories, and no pictures are necessary. Thanks so much for your continued support of our mission!
