Shanti Das (Press Reset Entertainment and member of Ebenezer Baptist
church) hosted a Shoebox party benefiting the United Way of Atlanta at
Tongue & Groove this past Saturday. She first learned of the project
at church (Ebenezer) and through WSB-TV. Donors brought lots of
toiletries for women and children. The United Way has been collecting shoe boxes w/toiletries since March 1st. 160 shoe boxes were
collected and they were decorated so beautifully! All of the items
will be delivered to homeless women and children on Mother’s Day! What a
blessing it is to serve the community! To learn more about the project,
please visit the United Way page.
