All are welcome… due to the flooding in May, we will be in the Park this Thursday night for a party. If you have EVER been involved in any way shape or form with AtG through Reach and Teach, 180, Image Builders or Study Buddies please come. Even if you have never been involved and want to learn more…please come… We will start at 6pm with a cook out. Then play catch with the kids, push a youngster on the swing, or go around on the merry-go-round. If you want to bring something please contact Carmen@atghope.org. The park is located behind the Boys and Girls Club on West Fowlkes. 129 West Fowlkes St Franklin TN.
Due to water damage to the building we use on Thursday nights we will need to cancel the 180 Program for May. We will see you in June. Continue to pray for all those that have lost their homes and possessions. Thankfully the 180 Moms are safe but we have a lot of volunteers/supporters that have not been so fortunate.
Monday, April 26th, AtG held its 5th Annual Golf Scramble at Old Natchez Country Club. It was a great success. The course was in beautiful shape and the players made continuous comments about how nice Old Natchez is. After the Scramble, everyone enjoyed a great buffet pasta-bar provided by Brothers' Pizza. Congratulations to Hubie Smith, Scott Sanderson, Robert Butler and Glenn Tackett for shooting a strong 15 under 57.
Thanks to the sponsors - McCann, Hubbard and Solomon, Brothers' Pizza Company, Street Tuxedos, Sir Speedy (Church Street), Sage Direct, Chic-fil-A, Regions Bank and The Nashville Predators Foundation. Please support these businesses and thank them for their service to the community.

AtG participated today in the Incredible Baby Shower in Nashville. This event was held at Tennessee State University's Gentry Field House and reached out to pregnant women in Middle Tennessee and provided information on healthy pregnancies and parenting. The AtG booth had a line over 40 feet long and we gave away seven tubs of pajamas. The best guess is that 750 young mothers came through the event and approximately 95% of them were single mothers.
With this event we need your help. We had 67 women sign up asking for more information about the 180 Program and gave away an additional 49 brochures to young ladies who wanted to contact us later. We need mentors who are willing to walk with a young mother for one year and lead her through the 180 curriculum. For more information or to sign up to be mentor contact Carmen Powell at carmen@atghope.org.
