The Weekly High 5 Hands On Atlanta

Our Corporate Partnerships Manager, Lara Wagner, drops by the show to tell us how companies in Atlanta can rally their teams in service this holiday season.

The Hands On Atlanta Civic Leadership Program, powered by Constellation, recently welcomed it’s 10th class of Civic Fellows! 18 changemakers from around metro Atlanta are taking their service to the next level and will participate in the year long program featuring leadership training and mentoring. We sat down with 2 new members, Ashley Adams and Bryan Robinson to learn more about the program and how their fellowship is going to help shape Atlanta.

Hands On Atlanta Day, the city's biggest, single day of service, is happening Saturday, Oct. 6! Our Director of Development, Julianna Cagle joined me for a fun conversation about how and why our corporate partners like Delta get involved, some of our marquee projects, our Kick-Off party, a very random and uneducated side bar about Silento, and a bunch more. Hope you enjoy it and for more info visit www.handsonatlanta.org.

This week we caught up with new Hands On Atlanta teammates and Starbucks Service Fellows, Maya and Julie to learn more about this awesome new pilot between Starbucks and Points of Light. Plus, we found out it's #PSL season and a few other barista tips and tricks.
