Project Downtown Atlanta

Project Downtown Atlanta is a community-engagement organization focused on serving marginalized communities in the greater Atlanta area including Emory University students, unhoused communities, refugee communities, incarcerated groups, and students in local K-12 schools.

Your donations will directly support Project Downtown Atlanta's mission to serve marginalized communities in the greater Atlanta area. Every dollar raised helps us provide tangible support and care to those who need it most, including:

  • Meal Packing Events: Your contributions help us purchase food and supplies to assemble and distribute nutritious meals to unhoused individuals and families in need.
  • Goodie Bags for Title 1 Schools: Funds go toward creating bags filled with essential school supplies, snacks, and small treats to brighten the day of students in underfunded schools.
  • Clothing Drives and Hygiene Kits: With your help, we can provide warm clothing, blankets, and personal hygiene kits to those facing harsh conditions.
  • Support for Refugee and Incarcerated Communities: Donations help us extend our efforts to create programs and supplies that assist refugees and incarcerated individuals on their journey toward stability and opportunity.

Your generosity enables us to expand our reach and continue organizing impactful community projects. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of our neighbors and foster a stronger, more compassionate Atlanta. Every donation, big or small, is a step toward a brighter future for all. Thank you for your support!
