AIDS Walk Atlanta 2010

The Living Room will be a participating organization for AIDS Walk Atlanta & 5K Run 2010, scheduled for Sunday, October 17, 2010. As a participating organization, we have the opportunity to recruit walkers and be a beneficiary of funds raised through this year’s event. Every walker on our team raises money for the Living Room, which is why we need you to walk (and get donations) as part of the Living Room Team. Signing up to walk for us is simple:

• Visit www.aidswalkatlanta.com
• Click on the Register button
• Read the limited liability waiver and click I agree if you agree
• Click on Join a Team
• Select Living Room from the list, and click Continue
• Complete the demographic information as requested

The cost for an individual walker registration is $10, and all the donations you raise will support the Living Room. If you are part of a Church, Civic, or School group interested in fundraising exclusively for Living Room, please contact Dolph Ward Goldenburg. If your group was not a team, or has not participated as a sub-team for another Participating organization, in the past two years (2008 and 2009), we would love to have you under our umbrella.

As part of our participation in AIDS Walk Atlanta & 5K Run, we also need to contribute 30 volunteer hours to the Walk by September 15. For this reason, we also welcome volunteers who want to support the Living Room and the AIDS Walk by volunteering through us.

We will recognize all walkers, teams and volunteers in our Winter Newsletter and invite you to our first annual Holiday Party in December.

Calling All Volunteers
Living Room has long believed that one of its greatest assets is the role volunteers play in the organization. We have been blessed over the years in having an unbelievable group of volunteers, many of whom started off as Living Room clients wanting to give back and help others in need. Our volunteers help in a variety of ways depending on their interests and the needs of the organization. The one thing they all have in common is a desire to help people with nothing expected in return. We are currently looking to expand our volunteer force in order to better serve our clients. If you are interested in applying or would like more information about volunteering, please email our Director of Client Services Kenneth Gantt at kenneth.gantt@livingroomatl.org and let him know you’d like to join the Living Room team!
