For the past six years, Hands On Atlanta has gone big to honor the 9/11 Day of Remembrance—a national day of service created to “take back the day” and remind us what’s possible when we unite in service.
This year, our community showed up in a powerful way.
More than 1,400 volunteers came together to pack an incredible 607,192 meals!
Every single one of those meals will go to the Atlanta Community Food Bank to be shared with families facing food insecurity across our region. That’s real impact, powered by people who care.
For this year’s event we teamed up with Meals of Hope, Brave Public Relations, the Mercedes Benz Stadium, and the Atlanta Community Food Bank (the recipient of the 600,000+ meals) for a meaningful and fun day of service. The energy was electric all day long with our guest emcees—Karyn Greer (WSB-TV anchor), Cheryl Preheim (11Alive anchor), Michele Grear (Atlanta Community Food Bank), and the one and only DJ Smoov, keeping spirits high! We closed out the day with remarks from Greg Sims (Atlanta Community Food Bank) with a powerful reminder of what’s possible when our community comes together, uniting in service and creating change!
Across three shifts, volunteers stood shoulder to shoulder with community leaders and first responders, proving that service is stronger when we do it together. Each shift joined in a moment of silence, followed by performances of “America the Beautiful” by Benjamin Mays High School Choir and Hands On Atlanta’s own Jemarlo Brown!

We’re just getting started with our Fall season line up of service. Next up, we’re keeping the Hunger Action Month momentum alive with 5,000 volunteers at State Farm Arena for the Million Meal Pack on September 27, 2025.
After, you don’t have to wait to do something good. From October 4 -11, 2025, we’re teaming up with The Same House for Hands On Atlanta Week - Atlanta’s biggest week of service. There are hundreds of opportunities and events you can sign up for addressing food insecurity, education, environmental sustainability and more throughout the week.
ATL is in Good Hands - the 2025 High Five Party
On April 17—yes, actual National High Five Day—we threw up our hands (literally) and celebrated Atlanta’s all-star volunteers the only way we know how: with food, fun, and a whole lotta gratitude.
The High Five Party made its triumphant return, this time doubling as a fundraiser to fuel the fire our volunteers light in communities across the city. We packed out The Painted Pickle with ping-pong, pickleball, putt-putt, and pure joy. There were good eats (seriously, the waffle fries are insane), cold drinks, great music, and more than a few friendly competitions (shout out to our own Trey Stanley aka Mr. Discovery for the Highest High Five).
But the true highlight? Our awards program, where we hit pause on the games to shine the spotlight on some of Atlanta’s most inspiring changemakers. Let’s meet the winners:
Left to right: Jay Cranman, Monica Taylor, Jennifer Smith, Predita Lundy, David Jernigan
🎉 Corporate Champion Award: Jennifer Smith, OneDigital
Presented by the incredible Elizabeth Chrane, this award recognized Jennifer’s unwavering dedication to corporate volunteerism and creating a culture of service at OneDigital.
🎉 School Legacy Award: Monnica Taylor, Kindezi at Gideons
Presented by the amazing Angeleria Willis, Monnica was honored for going above and beyond to empower her students and bring meaningful volunteer partnerships into the classroom.
🎉 Nonprofit Legacy Award: Grady Health
With words of admiration from Hands On Atlanta Board Chair, Adrienne White, we celebrated Grady Health for its deep-rooted commitment to health equity and community partnership that spans decades.
🎉 Founder’s Award: David Jernigan, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta
Presented by none other than Michelle Nunn, this special award went to David for his visionary leadership and lifelong devotion to building brighter futures for Atlanta’s youth.
These honorees aren’t just names on plaques—they’re the heartbeat of this movement. The ones who rally teams, ignite change, and make it their mission to leave Atlanta better than they found it.
And speaking of impact… in just the first few months of 2025:
We’ve activated 60,000 volunteers
Our 52 AmeriCorps members clocked over 250,000 service hours
30 Civic Leaders engaged 2,000+ neighbors
And our top volunteers contributed thousands of hours to local causes
So yeah, a party was very necessary.
The High Five Party means we can give high fives all year long at volunteer projects, events, meal distributions and more.
Give here to keep the good work going.
To everyone who came out to celebrate, to cheer, to play, to give—thank you. This night was for you. And to everyone who supports this mission year-round: you’re helping us build an Atlanta where service is second nature and high fives are a love language.
Until next time… high fives all around. 👋💥

Now an annual day of service in Atlanta, this is the 3rd year Hands On Atlanta has partnered with MyGoodDeed (d.b.a. 9/11 Day) the 501(c)(3) nonprofit that created the September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance. Their mission is to take back the day, transform the anniversary of 9/11 into a national day of doing good, and in the process rekindle the spirit of unity that arose in America in the immediate aftermath of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Together, we’ve engaged thousands of volunteers and packed over 500,000 meals for metro Atlanta families!
Atlanta Mayor, Andre Dickens and members of the Mayor’s Office joined the meal pack and spoke to the volunteers, sharing his energy, the impact and power of today’s event and thanking all the volunteers and organizers for their efforts.
For this year’s event we teamed up with Meals of Hope, Brave Public Relations, the Georgia World Congress Center, and the Atlanta Community Food Bank (the recipient of the 172,000+ meals) for a meaningful and fun day of service. Guest emcee and WSB-TV evening anchor, Karyn Greer kept the energy in the room electric and brought authenticity to the work and the purpose of uniting in service.
Ashley Graylee, a volunteer from Novelis summed up the event perfectly saying, “Coming together and doing something good for others, it just feels good, and it feels like 21 years later we are still honoring those who have lost so much.”
