Providing a much-need Car to a Mom and her Family

One Drake House mom received an early Christmas gift. Two days before Christmas, a generous Alpharetta Rotary Club member donated a car after a presentation discussing how transportation is a barrier to poverty.

This mom truly needed reliable and safe transportation to get to her late shift job at an assisted living facility in Buckhead. The donor heard that she was often unable to use public transportation to get home late at night and had to walk from the North Springs MARTA station. She's overjoyed at all the opportunities that The Drake House has given her during her stay. Alpharetta Rotary has helped change lives of her and her family.
