The Atlanta Chapter of Twelve Days of Christmas

The Atlanta Chapter’s Party with a Purpose to be held on December 1, 2016 at Studio No. 7, from 6:30 p.m.-10:30 p.m. Our 2016 Party with a Purpose will benefit 100 children at KIPP WAYS Primary Academy in Atlanta.
Gift process
Twelve Days members personally shop for and carefully wrap multiple gifts for each child. The Atlanta chapter collects a wish list for each child to ensure that the gift giving process treats recipients with dignity and respect honoring the humanity of the individual. The gifts are then presented to the children at a holiday party along with food and holiday themed treats. Last year, our efforts supported 65 children in the Atlanta Metropolitan area in partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta.
