Mission Grounds is a 501c non-profit corporation focusing on helping homeless children and global orphans.  It is currently building orphanages in Venezuela and china and helping homeless children in Atlanta, Africa, Russia, Venezuela, China and Costa Rica.  Mission grounds in partnership with Trinity community ministries are planning to build a training center for homeless mothers in downtown Atlanta at Trinity United Methodist church.  The training center will feature a cooking school, computer lab, library, free daycare center and will focus on teaching both job skills and life skills. Trinity community ministries will continue to support and council the graduates for up to a full year after they start their new jobs.  The training center will greatly benefit Atlanta children, as it will facilitate their mothers into a fresh start. Not only will it be one of the few job training centers focusing on both single and homeless mothers but the byproduct of the cooking school will also feed hundreds of homeless families everyday. *All proceeds from the bash go to the Atlanta Project*
