From Our Heart to Yours

Games and laughter filled the lobby of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta as Perfect Love volunteers initiated Game Day at the hospital's Egleston location. The event known as Christopher's Cause, is an opportunity for patients and families to engage in recreational activity as a part of the foundation's Compassion for Kids initiative. Our volunteers may have loss gracefully for the day, but it was truly a win for everybody. We would like to acknowledge Heartbeat (our foundation's partners) and our volunteers who donated board games for the day's event. Chick-Fil-A also provided food. If you too would like to become a partner of the foundation, join HEARTBEAT today.

"With every resource you help us provide, you're not only providing a meal or hygeine kit - you're providing hope." These were the impactful words of Charles, a Community Care Representative of Perfect Love Foundation speaking to an enthusiastic group of volunteers the morning of a Resource Packing party. These packing parties are not uncommon for the foundation and have become a signature event in which community resources are gathered, sorted, prepped and assembled for distribution. Afterwards, the items are distributed to various communities with citizens in need. Community is a word that resonates throughout the foundation, as its members will often describe the organization as just that - a community. The culture of the organization itself reminds its volunteers that Perfect Love is a community of individuals who: 1) love people,  2) understand that collectively we can make a difference, and 3) believe it is possible to build a better world by creat

BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER IN TIMES OF DIVISION A standing ovation welcomed students and professionals who gathered March 9 th , in the Georgia Senate Chamber in support of Perfect Love’s Unify Georgia initiative. A historic day in the making, Unify Georgia was not only recognized as a monumental win for the foundation but more so the day quickly became deemed a victory for the state of Georgia. Legislators and spectators witnessed  more than a hundred individuals of all ages, from elementary and middle school students to college graduates and professionals, who chose to gather on one accord for the purpose of exercising their voices to encourage citizens and lawmakers to look past their differences and to stand together in unity and love.  Unify Georgia which began as merely a community initiative led by the Perfect Love Foundation in hopes of bringing people closer together in times of division, rapidly evolved into a much larger movement that ultimately led to the

YOUR PARTNERSHIP MAKES A DIFFERENCE! I remember recently performing one of our Foundation’s routine meal distributions in downtown Atlanta. On this particular night, the sting of winter was fully felt with frosting temperatures below 20 degrees. And despite weather warnings, our volunteer team was determined to still perform the distribution and hand meals to homeless citizens that night. 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
