"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.

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

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
