Our Impact
Without hope children living in poverty are likely to continue the generational cycle. With the hope and tools Agape gives, the generational cycle of poverty is broken.
Get Involved
Each year 1,200 volunteers help Agape end generational poverty through a multitude of ways. We value these people who give their time to help our kids.
What’s Happening at Agape
In 2015, the True Inspiration Awards were founded to honor the generous spirit and legacy of Chick-fil-A’s founder, S. Truett Cathy. Each year, Chick-fil-A honors and supports community organizations from across the U.S. and Canada that are making a positive impact in the areas of hunger, homelessness and education. Well, this year, we are thrilled to announce that Agape was named one of this year’s Chick-fil-A True Inspiration Award recipients! This grant will support our efforts as we strive to help students discover, embrace and achieve their full potential. Thank you John Diamond, operator for the Howell Mill and West Midtown locations, for nominating us!

In partnership with Julie’s Dream, Agape students traveled more than 2,641 miles for outdoor experiences in 2019. This included a sponsored trip for 20 teen girls to take a fall hiking trip to New Hampshire in the White Mountains (Joe Dodge Lodge). This once in a lifetime trip was described as a tranquil experience where students could hear the small pebbles cascading beneath their feet as they anxiously stepped onto the next big rock on their way to their next adventure.
