A Letter from Our Executive Director

Lastly, I ask that you consider making a donation to Covenant House Georgia at this time to sustain our programming, giving a gift of food for our young people, or scheduling a drop-off of supplies to help keep our campus a safe place for the youth who call us home.

With your generosity and support, I am certain that Covenant House Georgia will continue to thrive while opening doors of opportunity for our youth overcoming homelessness and escaping trafficking.

With Gratitude,

Dr. Alie Redd
Executive Director
Covenant House Georgia

HOW WE’RE PROTECTING THE HEALTH OF OUR YOUTH & STAFF AT THIS TIME:

• We are monitoring the temperatures of all current youth in residence, all newly arrived youth during intake,  and staff on a daily basis to aid with early detection.
• We are prioritizing routine environmental cleaning and everyday preventive actions by continuing to sanitize high contact surfaces such as light switches, handrails, toilet seats, and doorknobs/handles daily.
• We are educating youth on the COVID-19 pandemic by providing information about the virus and how they can help prevent the spread of infection, including best practices for disinfecting.
• We are meeting with all youth and staff regularly to address concerns and offer support at this time.
• We have postponed all in-person special events and are continuing to adhere to national and local guidelines on gathering. 
• We are restricting campus access to youth, essential employees and vendors, and volunteers making pre-arranged drop-offs at this time.
• We are restricting campus access to protect the safety of our youth and staff. Only youth, essential employees and vendors, and volunteers making pre-arranged drop-offs are allowed access at this time.

How You Can Support

Donate Food

We are making temporary changes to our Prepare and Share a Meal program. Our meal sharing program is still a critical need to Covenant House Georgia. 

Though we are unable to have volunteers serve food inside of our crisis shelter at this time, we are asking supporters to sign up to deliver a meal to our youth (our staff will receive your delivery and serve the food on your behalf) or donate a catered meal through one of our restaurant partners below.

Donate Funds

There is no greater time than now to invest in Covenant House Georgia so that those who are the most vulnerable will have their needs met. Your contribution will help us provide stability for our youth in this time of uncertainty.
