YELLS would not be able to touch the lives of so many in the Franklin Gateway Community without the support of the Atlanta Braves Foundation! The Braves Foundation has allowed the YELLS Afterschool Program and the Community Action Café to leverage the resources provided by our other supporters into impactful programming by allowing us to buy supplies and materials needed to facilitate our activities. With their support, we have been able to engage our youth in high-energy activities which promote health and wellness while also reinforcing values of positivity, discipline, encouragement, resilience, and empathy.

The Atlanta Braves Foundation also supported our annual Servant-Leadership Retreat, which we use to kick-off our school year with empowerment for our Café and Mentoring teens. This retreat builds our team and prepares youth for their journey as the change makers in their community.
With unhealthy options all around our youth every day, we are proud to partner with the Braves Foundation to offer our youth healthy alternatives as we nourish their physical and emotional well-being!
In addition to contributing more than $360,000 in grants to local non-profit organizations, the Atlanta Braves Foundation also does around-the-year community outreach through annual programs such as the Atlanta Braves Foundation Weekend, Atlanta Braves Foundation Golf Classic, 50/50 Raffle, SunTrust Park Legacy Brick Program, State Issued License Tags, and auctions throughout the season.
