“The Very Thing You’re Running From Is What You Need to Face.”

"It All Starts With Saying Yes. Just Showing Up."

When you walk through the doors of Atlanta Mission, not because it's your job, but because you chose to be there, our clients notice. They notice the difference between someone who has to show up and someone who wanted to. In this episode of Unseen Atlanta, we talk about what that choice actually looks like and how Atlanta Mission will find a place for whatever you bring. A Georgia Tech student running a STEM workshop. Someone who loves kids showing up to play. A person with a few free hours on Tuesday learning the names of everyone who walks through the door. Whatever your skills, your schedule, your passions, there's a role here that fits. And it will matter more than you know. Support the show [https://give.atlantamission.org/campaign/590140/donate]
