As many of you know 11 people have frozen to death on the streets of Atlanta since December. This is unacceptable in a city that carries so much wealth. We are better than this. These next few nights the temperatures in the city will be around 20 degrees.
It will feel much colder than that with wind. This means that there is tremendous potential that there will be more deaths. Because of this crisis, a warming shelter is opening for LGBTQIA+ youth. Community organizations are coming together to save lives but they need help.
Specifically help getting volunteers to staff the shelter. We need about 5 volunteers for each shift which consists of four hours. The only requirement is that you not have a violent criminal record or previous accusations of assault or abuse.
Please contact me if you can volunteer or if your organization can sponsor a shift.
