Atlanta Center for Self-Sufficiency

I volunteered with the Sam House and am definitely a fan of this organization that helps Atlanta’s homeless get back on their feet. Their method to help is helping them gain employment by giving the correct training needed to get a job — many of the things that a lot of us find it easy to take for granted. They provide them with a solid breakfast to prepare for the day, computer access to search for jobs, resume help, a voicemail line, a place to shower, and clothes to interview for possible jobs.
Volunteering can be really rewarding when you are able to see a client actually land a job — and an eye opening experience to boot. They also do the much heralded Café 458, which raises money for the cause. Run by a group of dedicated and positive people, definitely a place worthy of your resources!
