ALPHARETTA ROTARY PREPARES A HOME FOR A HOMESTRETCH FAMILY

Rotary Club of Alpharetta completed 3 projects for HomeStretch to get an apartment ready for a new family to move in. Alpharetta Rotarians painted the interior of the apartment. And on Saturday, September 24 Rotarians cleaned the inside and outside of the apartment.

Rotarian Karen Nolan said, “Alpharetta Rotarians are happy to volunteer their time and resources to give families in our community a hand up through HomeStretch. HomeStretch families are proud hardworking members of our community and Homestretch offers them the support they need to ensure they have the opportunity for a bright successful future.”

HomeStretch is an organization that addresses some of the root causes of homelessness in our community. It is one of the few programs in the country that not only provides housing but works with the families to help stop the cycle of homelessness. The Rotary Club of Alpharetta annually sponsors an apartment and a family at HomeStretch. In addition, Alpharetta Rotarians serve as Financial and Life Mentors for the family.
