A Metro Atlanta Initiative

 

This program aims to assist individuals without food and shelter. These individuals face difficult health challenges everyday such as: lack of access to clean water, nutritious meals, fresh clothing and even haircuts. We are working to improve these conditions.

Our team built a portable shower from two containers to give showers. Additionally, we provide hot nutritious meals, fruit, clothing, herbal teas and hygiene items. Positive affirmations are also incorporated. Bless up is a common phrase used in Jamaica meaning gratitude and well wishes upon one life.

In this program, we envision a world where individuals without shelter will have access to basic needs.
