Carrollton Rainbow needs drive for LGBTQ+ homeless youth a success!

PFLAG Carrollton, Carrollton Rainbow, and West Georgia Area Free Mom Hugs has wrapped up their needs supply and holiday cards drive for homeless LGBTQ+ youth in Atlanta!  We collected blankets, book bags/drawstring bags, hygiene products, toiletries, snacks, and some nicknacks and put them all together for Lost N Found Youth to hand out to homeless youth. Thank you EVERYONE who donated or participated in some way. We could NOT have done this without the help of everyone in the community. We collected blankets, book bags/drawstring bags, hygiene products, toiletries, snacks, and some nicknacks. We put them all together for Lost N Found Youth to hand out to homeless youth. To PFLAG Carrollton and West Georgia Area - Free Mom Hugs- Georgia Group, it was an absolute honor to collaborate with y’all on this project! We hope to do this again next year!
