Global Village Welcome Walk Partner Organizations
November 2, 2019 @ 9:30AM — 1:00PM Eastern Time (US & Canada)
Be a partner organization for GVP's Annual Welcome Walk from Clarkston to Decatur
PRE-REGISTRATION IS CLOSED.
Please join us at 9:30AM November 2nd at Refuge Coffee Co. for day-of registration!
Please join us as we walk from Clarkston — where most of our students begin their new life in Georgia – to Global Village Project’s home in downtown Decatur, where we will hold our Finish Line Celebration, complete with all the necessary festivities! The Welcome Walk highlights the connection between these two cities and their vast potential to support Atlanta’s refugee community.
As a Welcome Walk Partner, we invite you to spread a message of welcome and support refugees in our community by walking with us to empower the incredible young refugee women at our school who will lead us into the future!
When you register here as a Partner Organization, you will
- Contribute a $50 registration fee on behalf of your organization to help us promote the celebration and connect all of our communities together.
- Be able to offer your representatives a discounted rate to join us as Partner Representative Participants the day of the walk! Individuals may register on this page at the discounted rate of $20 a person.
- Showcase your commitment to our community’s diversity and young refugee girls' education as a partner on the event T-shirt, social media, and on the GVP website and annual report.
When we can unite in educating the young women who, with their families, have survived political persecution, conflict and often war-torn journeys to the U.S., we know we are showcasing the best that our community has to offer.
