Catching up with Adrienne White isn’t easy - literally! This part-time runner and coach and full-time finance and board service pro has served on various nonprofit boards ranging from the Atlanta Beltline Partnership to the Atlanta Track Club. These days she’s committed her skills and passion for a more equitable Atlanta to actively serve on boards with Hands On Atlanta and the Grove Park Foundation. Adrienne is also the Vice Chair for Candidate Recruitment at the Democratic Party of Georgia.

Committed to student success, Constance Mack, Director, Business Strategy & Initiatives at Bank of America, shares the impact of her board service at Atlanta Technical College, and a run in with one of Atlanta’s largest legends. Get to know her and why she’s so passionate about improving the career and economic trajectory for students.

We recently spent some time with Eula Spivey, a teacher at Fairington Elementary School and 2021 Hands On Atlanta Civic Fellow, to learn more about her commitment to her students and the community she’s impacted for the last 32 years.

I like the freedom to volunteer around my schedule and volunteering with Hands On Atlanta and the American Red Cross let me give back when I’m available. Between work and travel, there are always events that I can participate in. I also like the people I volunteer with! I enjoy seeing the the regulars that volunteer often and the new people I meet at each event.

I have been involved with 48in48 for the past 6 years in multiple capacities, it’s become my passion project. The organization brings together volunteers who excel in digital marketing and technology to build free websites for many deserving nonprofits in a 48-hour “hack-a-thon.”
