The Gateway Center of downtown Atlanta works with the Regional Commission on Homelessness to provide much-needed services to the homeless population of Atlanta.  The Gateway Center offers a day center where people can come rest, shower, receive basic medical care, and do laundry.  To help the Gateway Center with their mission, GIVE collected hygiene kits for donation.  These kits included basic hygiene products (soap, toothpaste, etc) and towels that could be distributed by the Gateway Center to their target population.  The Gateway Center also provides a 270-bed men's dormitory that includes separate wards for post-hospitalization recovery, mental health patients, veterans, substance abuse recovery, and a job-training center.  In addition, a Women & Children's shelter provides 30 beds for families, to which GIVE was pleased to donate several boxes of diapers and baby formula.  Thank you so much to everyone who participated, and we hope to work with the Gateway Center again in the future!
