Agency: Hands On Atlanta Citizen Academy

Description: Make a Difference! Make new friends!

Are you new to Atlanta and interested in sampling diverse volunteer experiences while meeting new people? Maybe you're already involved in a group that would like to get involved in volunteering? TeamWorks! is a great place to start.

TeamWorks! is a group volunteer program open to everyone interested in participating in a variety of volunteer projects over an eight week period. TeamWorks! is a great way to meet new people and sample service projects throughout Atlanta.

The TeamWorks! experience begins with a kick-off event where participants form teams, participate in teambuilding activities and choose service projects. The teams then compete to perform the most hours of service by having the most team members participate in 4-6 volunteer projects during the round.

Midway through the round volunteers gather at a local sports bar or restaurant for the Mid-Round Mixer. Finally, at the end of the round, all the teams gather at a closing project where volunteers get a chance to share their experiences and brainstorm additional steps toward building a better community, and the teams are recognized for their service.
