"First Presbyterian Preschool’s community of students, parents and staff came together in support of Homeless at Heart in a way that was simply amazing. Parents commented about how good it felt to make the Valentine’s bags and the children related to individuals they see who need our assistance.  The staff rallied around the cause and as we received each bag were so excited about the impact we would have directly to the community in midtown Atlanta.  The school is proud to be a partner and advance Charlie Plyler’s mission to help those who need our expressions of love."

JoAnn Regruto, Director, First Presbyterian Preschool

"We want our students at Atlanta Youth Academy to look beyond themselves and serve others in our community. Homeless at Heart has been a great opportunity for our students to get behind a cause to help the homeless in Atlanta. Last year, a few of our 8th grade students led the effort to collect shoe boxes for Homeless at Heart and collected over 200 boxes."

Katie Koerten, 6th Grade Teacher, Atlanta Youth Academy

"The Kenan Preschool loved participating in 12-year-old Charlie Plyler's effort to spread cheer to our local homeless for Valentine's Day. We were proud to collaborate with this wonderful organization and will continue to do it again this year. Our students were excited to make valentines, decorate boxes and bring supplies. Homeless at Heart made it so easy to contribute - they are such a dedicated group! Thanks for letting us be involved."
