About Mission Grounds: MG exists to help homeless children and orphans. It generates money to help these children through the sale of a great coffee. None of the volunteers receive a salary and there is very little overhead. Hence 100 percent of the profits are donated to charity. Over the past 2 years, Mission Grounds has been helping orphans in China, Russia, Africa and Venezuela. MG has also been helping homeless children around the metro Atlanta-area through the donations of food, clothes, coats, shoes, books and book bags. Mission Grounds has sponsored many neighborhood collection drives for clothes, shoes and books and also through a large back to school drive sponsored by Kroger Grocery Stores. Our goal with the Bash at the Bend Charity event is to generate enough funds to establish a program that teaches homeless single moms a trade like “cooking” or basic office computer skills- so they can acquire meaningful & productive employment.
