Atlanta Braves, Golden Harvest team up to fight hunger
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Partners with the Atlanta Braves teamed up with Golden Harvest on Friday to help fight hunger in Augusta.
It’s part of the efforts of the Atlanta Braves Foundation.
20 season ticket holders and staff helped create backpacks helping the community by taking part in the food packing project.
Those backpacks are helping families have additional food resources as students finish the school year.
The vice president of the GreenJackets spoke about giving back.
“I mean 9 a.m. we had a game last night that went pretty long everyone looks like they are having a good time. Like I said it’s good for staff and season ticket holders to get together to do something for the community,” said Tom Denlinger.
On Friday night, the Braves’ country road trip is headed to SRP Park, and the partnership continues this weekend, helping set up Thunder Over Evans on Saturday.
