A Thousand Meals and Counting


PERFECT LOVE FOUNDATION SURPASSES ANNUAL MILESTONE!


With nearly 40 days still remaining in the second fiscal quarter of 2017, Perfect Love Foundation has reported an unforeseen impact in the city of Atlanta, GA. Since January 2017, the Foundation has already managed to not only meet its annual objective of providing a thousand meals to the city's homeless, but has also surpassed this milestone in record breaking time.  With over 1,400 meals being distributed within the first four months of the year, Perfect Love is currently trending to prepare 3 times it's expected yearly contribution of meals to the homeless.


Additionally, the foundation has contributed nearly 200 hours of service to the city of Atlanta. Perfect Love shows no sign of slowing or diminishing efforts and is excited to continue making 2017 a record breaking year of impact. Currently, the foundation is expanding its community care program for the homeless, enhancing its fathering program (Prioritizing Fatherhood) and is set to unveil a new leadership and entrepreneurial training initiative this summer that will host development domestically and abroad.

As we hurried to deliver the meals on the streets of Atlanta, in the distance, further than the crowd that had surrounded us to receive the meals, I saw a middle-aged woman perfectly placed on a low wall with several blankets from the neck down. Curious as to why she didn’t move to receive the food, I approached her asking if she would like a meal. What happened next literally hurt my heart. She looked at me and declined the meal saying give it to them. Confused about who she was referring to, she lifted the blanket urging two small children around the same age as my 6-year-old daughter to retr
