Congressman Johnson Honors Local Nonprofits at Fourth Annual Week of H.O.P.E ceremony

LITHONIA - On Saturday, August 22, at the Lou Walker Senior Center, Congressman Hank Johnson held his Ceremony of H.O.P.E. Awards ceremony to close out his 4th Annual Week of H.O.P.E.

The Week of H.O.P.E. (Helping Other People Elevate), which centers around National Nonprofit Day, is a celebration of the nonprofit organizations, leaders, and volunteers who dedicate themselves to improving the lives of others throughout Georgia's Fourth Congressional District.
The honorees: Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights (GLAHR), Habitat for Humanity DeKalb, Kids'-Doc-On-Wheels, Inc., Lady T's Homeless Ministry, Made for Bigger, and Parent to Parent of Georgia (P2PGA).

"From helping low-income residents get access to quality healthcare, building homes, feeding the homelessness to supporting our immigrant communities, all six of our awardees tonight are pillars of our community," said Congressman Johnson. "You feed, heal, shelter, and nurture people of every age, gender, race, socioeconomic status and political persuasion - but I can't help but reflect that all of you - your impact on young people is most profound. You touch and benefit all Georgians by pouring into our next generation, and today we say thank you."
