Lost-n-Found Youth
First Baptist Decatur provides financial support to Lost-n-Found Youth, an Atlanta-based nonprofit organization that provides services to LGBTQ+ Youth experiencing homelessness. They envision a world where all youth feel safe and supported to live and love authentically.
Specific volunteer opportunities include meal prep for the youth shelter which is continuously full. They serve over 600 meals a month, 3 meals a day for 20 persons at each meal. They also need volunteers to process and sort donated items to the Lost-n-Found Thrift Store. Contact Beth Jackson-Jordan at bjacksonjordan@gmail.com if you are interested in serving.
