First Pres Family Promise Host Weeks, October 13 - 27

First Presbyterian will be the host church for Family Promise from October 13 - 27.

Volunteers directly impact and assist the families by providing a meal, giving a $25 donation (to First Pres with Family Promise in memo) to purchase groceries or rideshare gift cards, driving the van on Monday or Saturday, spending time with the families on Saturday at the Day Center (located at Athens First Baptist Church), or hosting a Saturday Children’s activity for the kids.

If you would like to help, please see a Family Promise Team member in the Atrium on Sunday mornings or sign up online at tinyurl.com/FPAVolunteer. If you have questions, please contact the Family Promise Coordinators, Susan Boatwright at boatwright.susan@gmail.com or Jean Bock at jbock@bellsouth.net.

As a reminder: in January 2024, Family Promise of Athens updated its service delivery model to offer more stability to participating families while they work to transition out of the program into a permanent home. Families will be living independently in Habitat for Humanity Apartments while they receive wraparound support from Family Promise and area churches.
