Blessing Bags

Nurturing Empathy, Building Bridges

At Lundynn's Bridges, we are committed to fostering a community that values every individual, treating each person with dignity and respect. Our Blessing Bags program is not just a charitable initiative; it's a vital component of our mission to instill empathy and compassion in the hearts of our youth.

**Teaching Empathy through Action:**

We believe that empathy is a cornerstone of being a good human. In a city like Atlanta, where homelessness is a pressing issue, we saw an opportunity to turn compassion into action. Our Blessing Bags program is designed to provide tangible lessons in empathy for our youth.

**Quarterly Events with Purpose:**

During each of our quarterly events, our youth actively participate in packing Blessing Bags. These bags, filled with essential items, serve as a bridge between our youth and those experiencing homelessness. It's more than just a charitable act; it's an opportunity for our youth to connect with the broader community and understand the challenges faced by others.

**What's in a Blessing Bag:**

While the contents may vary seasonally, each Blessing Bag, at a minimum, contains water, a sweet snack, and a salty snack. We recognize the importance of variety and aim to include packaged fruit or applesauce when possible. In the winter, our bags are equipped with thermal blankets and hand warmers to provide warmth during the colder months.

**Become a Bridge Ambassador:**

To extend the impact of our Blessing Bags program, we invite adults to become Bridge Ambassadors. Ambassadors play a crucial role by signing up to distribute these bags to those in need throughout the city. It's a meaningful way for individuals to contribute to their community and make a direct impact on the lives of those experiencing homelessness.

**How to Get Involved:**

If you're inspired to become a Bridge Ambassador, simply fill out our volunteer form and select it as your area of interest. Your commitment can make a significant difference in the lives of those facing homelessness, and in turn, contribute to the development of a more empathetic and compassionate society.

Join us at Lundynn's Bridges as we bridge the gap between communities, nurturing empathy, and building a future where kindness knows no bounds.
