COMMUNITY VISITOR

Congresswoman Lucy McBath and her team recently toured our facility to learn more about our programs and achievements. She took time to meet with staff and immediately jumped in for a game of basketball with our students! We appreciate her passion for supporting our mission, to help end generational poverty, one child at a time.

RAGTIME SENIORS STAYING

ACTIVE

Our RAGTime Seniors are staying active and classy while doing it! They have been taking an aerobics class hosted by Carl E. Sanders YMCA instructors with fun and energetic music. Our seniors continue to gather for fun games of BINGO and recently added a twist with their own fashion show! Ms. Jefferson brightened up the event by setting the tone with this season’s “it” color, butter yellow! Agape serves senior citizens in the RAGTIME daytime program by keeping them engaged in community, lunches, arts and crafts, field trips, and more. We invite you to help support this program and become a sponsor by visiting, agapeatlanta.org.
