Street Wise

Picture
StreetWise is a nonprofit organization committed to helping people who are living below the poverty level get the professional help and care they need to rebuild their lives and function independently. Rebuilding lives does not just come through handouts; it comes through commitment and involves a process. StreetWise Georgia is committed to:
Meeting Needs
The first step toward rebuilding is in meeting immediate needs with tangible assistance. StreetWise aids clients with food, clothing and basic household items by appointment at our facility, 10AM-2PM on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. We also partner with Atlanta Community Food Bank to hold a Mobile Food Pantry on the second Saturday of each month. Pre-registered guests never have to get out of their cars.
StreetWise is able to provide these items through donations from the community and is blessed to distribute over 1 million lbs. of food to over 5,000 families! With help from community members like you, we hope to exceed this and our goal is to reach many more families.

Demonstrating Commitment Terry and Pat Powell have been ministering to the inner city families of Atlanta and the surrounding area since 1988. People in need learn that they can count on StreetWise for more than food and clothing. StreetWise cares and is there for them whenever they need it. Terry, Pat and StreetWise Georgia have demonstrated commitment to serving local families through:
  • Weekly Bible Studies
  • Weekly Adult Reading Classes
  • Christian Counseling
  • Ladies’ and Men’s Retreats
  • Mentoring
StreetWise also conducts many community events focused on sharing the love of Christ. Families can come for fun and find hope in the process. Events include:
  • Birthday Party for Jesus
  • Block Parties
  • Prom Starganza
  • Easter Celebration
  • Backpack Day Event
  • Thanksgiving Event
Building Independence
StreetWise helps struggling families get back on their feet and enables them to function independently. We offer physical, emotional, mental and spiritual tools to help people move from a state of dependency to a state of well-being and self-sufficiency. StreetWise offers:

  • Christian Counseling
  • Job Training and Seminars
