Braves Game

Thank to Dennis who generously donated tickets for us to take some of our students to the Braves game today.  Upon seeing the stadium for the first time, the students' were wide-eyed in amazement.  They were all hoping that they would be able to sit in the upper deck because it "looked so tall!" When we told them thats where they were going to sit, they were jumping up and down with joy!!  They had never been before so they were very excited.  Not only did they get to experience their first baseball game, they also had their first taste of Dippin' Dots ice cream.  We had a wonderful time!

A David Dance Recital

Ladisa, from A David Dance Recital, graciously gave us a table at her company's recital so that we could share our program.  Thank you so much!  After the recital, we were approached by several people who were interested in hearing more about our program.  It's so heartwarming to know that people are so willing to share their time to help us help our students.

A Celebration!

We had a wonderful turnout today for our celebration!  Even though today is the last day of student packing for the 2011-2012 school year, it is not the end.  We will continue with other activities for the students during the summer.  Thank you to everyone- our friends and families, Memorial Drive Presbyterian, Shallowford Presbyterian, and volunteers- who have helped us make Bountiful Bags a reality.  With all the support, we hope that this program will continue on for years to come.

LAST PACKING FOR 2011-2012

Tomorrow, May 18, will be the last packing for the 2011-2012 school.  Please come help us to celebrate a very successful first year of Bountiful Bags!

Mosaic Circle At Shallowford Presbyterian

What a wonderful surprise! We thought we were coming to Shallowford Presbyterian today for a dinner and then a small presentation about Bountiful Bags.  Instead, the dinner was centered around our program.  All of the tables were decorated beautifully.

The ladies of the Mosaic Circle were absolutely amazing! They were so generous and gracious.  We received many school supplies, nonperishables, and toiletries.  Thank you ladies for letting us share our mission and story with you!
