On Saturday, the City Church-Eastside will hold a yard sale to benefit the Atlanta Police Department’s Little Five Points mini-precinct.

Please reserve Saturday, May 16th, for our church-wide service project. This year we will be benefitting the Little Five Police Precinct which, due to city financial cut backs, is threatened with being closed. At a time when crime is on the increase, this can not happen! This precinct relies heavily on neighborhood contributions and we want to raise funds for them. We will be hosting a Community Yard Sale in the parking lot of the Little Five Points Community Center, on Euclid.

The yard sale will be held from 7:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m in the L5P community center parking lot at the corner of Euclid and Austin Avenues. For more information, check out the church’s website.

Matchstic, a marketing firm based near Ormewood Park, and a few other partners are offering about $80,000 in services to the winning nonprofit that applies. The deadline is March 23, and surprisingly, the application isn’t filled with questions that most fledgling nonprofits won’t be able to answer. The “prize” includes a new logo, Web site design and development, promotional print materials (and the copy writing and actual printing services) and some help with strategy and brand positioning.

It’s true the “On the House” campaign will probably benefit the providers, too, but there’s no harm in supporting a community organization in the process, right? Last year’s winner was City Church Eastside.
