Atlanta United's December in the Community

Staff Report From Metro Atlanta CEO

Tuesday, December 5th, 2017

The season may be over, but Atlanta United is as busy as ever this holiday season, getting involved and giving back to the city we call home. There are two primary events this month that can use the help of Five Stripes nation. Here's how you can help us give back:

Pitch in with Parky

Atlanta United Capitan, Michael Parkhurst will be holding a canned food drive at the Atlantic Station Team Store on Sunday, December 10 starting at 12pm. Bring a canned food item and get an autograph and picture with Parky! Collected food will be donated to Crossroads Ministries at Clyde’s Kitchen which serves over 200+ homeless Atlanta men and women hot meals every day.

Boxing Day

Atlanta United will host its 4th Annual Boxing Day Scarf Exchange on December 26, 2017 at select Pub Partners in Atlanta. Join ATL UTD for English Premier League soccer games, giveaways at halftime, and more! All attendees are encouraged to bring a gently-used scarf and in return you will receive a 2017 Atlanta United Boxing Day Scarf. All scarves exchanged will be donated to Covenant House Georgia.
