Announcing the Hands On Atlanta Shop
Volunteering, serving your community, being an engaged citizen... these are not things you do on a Saturday morning. These actions are not simply, "scheduled time for good" before carrying on with your weekend. It's a lifestyle. It's a choice you make every morning when you wake up, confirming "Today I'm going to do something good."
To help celebrate you and your lifestyle, we're excited to announce the Hands On Atlanta store! When you shop with Hands On Atlanta, you'll find fun and meaningful swag that helps express your inner changemaker to the world. Sounds good, right? There's more, with every purchase, 100% of profits will go directly to supporting our impact programs! Every shirt you buy can help provide a day of snacks for 1 student OR provide that student with a literacy kit at one of our partner Title 1 schools. With each accessory you pick up, it can provide 2 basic hygiene kits for a child or adult. These are just a few ways in which your purchases have power!
Think about TOMS Shoes, Warby Parker, Patagonia, and even our local, Atlanta friends at Alternative Apparel. All of these brands make quality products, but I'm willing to bet you buy them over a competitor because you know, with each purchase you're doing something good - AND THAT'S AWESOME. It's that little angel over your right shoulder, nudging you in the right direction.
Do good and look good doing it! We hope you enjoy this little experiment and would love your feedback. What products would you like to see? How can we help you and your changemaker lifestyle? Give us a shout on Instagram or Twitter and let us know!
Special shout out to our summer intern, Heidi Risher for helping pull the shop together and prep it for launch! If you're interested in learning how we did it, let us know.
