Totes 2 Tots Suitcase Drive

The 10th annual Totes 2 Tots suitcase drive will be held Jan. 13, 2012.

The drive was originally organized by an employee of healthcare provider Georgia Cancer Specialists and is the 10th annual drive. Those children in the child welfare system and reside in foster homes , when they are moved to other foster homes, their belongings are typically put in garbage bags. It is traumatizing enough for the children to be moved around through the system, but the hope is that by giving them a backpack or suitcase for their belongings will at the least offer the children a bit of dignity and compassion.

New and nearly new backpacks and luggage may be dropped off at the: Georgia Cancer Specialists Office 1100 Johnsons Ferry Road Atlanta, Ga. 30342, Monday thru Friday between the hours of 8:30 and 5:00. The bags will be disturbed in Fulton County through the state Department of Human Services, Division of Family and Children’s Services.
