remembering the past, going with the future
The BAGA Youth Committee participated in a holiday food drive event with Atlanta Union Mission. The team raised money from BAGA members and patrons for turkeys and canned good items. This year a total of $480 was raised. Thanks to all who donated towards this benevolent work. With that money we bought 32 Turkeys and spend the rest $250 towards canned food. On the day of the event, 17 November 2018 a team of 16 BAGA volunteers reached Atlanta Union Mission:The Shepherd's Inn location early in the morning. There the team helped by organizing can donations, prepping the kitchen, and serving a delicious Thanksgiving meal to the many people that showed up. We are very proud of our efforts and are happy to keep this yearly tradition of ours going!
