About: Second Self Brewery is donating 20% of the proceeds from their beer tasting and brewery tour on April 28 from 6PM - 8PM to Living Room. Guests will purchase tickets to taste beer while enjoying fun games and live music. Living Room will need 5 volunteers to help us advocate for homeless and low income people with HIV/AIDS. These volunteers will need to arrive at 4:30PM for a brief training on Living Room’s history and services. Visit our Facebook Event Page.
Vacant positions: We need some extra hands in sign and promotional material setup and cleanup. Volunteers are also needed during the event to provide information regarding Living Room’s services to the attendees.
Volunteers must be 21 years or older with a valid state issued ID.

Mission Statement
To ensure people living with HIV/AIDS in Georgia obtain and maintain long-term, stable housing.
Description
Living Room began in 1995, as a part of Trinity Community Ministries, to assist people living with HIV/AIDS find stable, affordable housing, and became an independent 501c3 organization in 1999. Our founder, Sister Mary Jane Lubinski, saw housing not only as an issue of maintaining human dignity, but as the foundation of effective medical treatment of HIV-a theory now confirmed by research.
Living Room serves both the 29-county Atlanta metropolitan area and the rural Northwest Georgia region surrounding Rome and Dalton. Over 90% of Living Room’s clients are defined as "extremely low income," so finding and maintaining affordable housing is essential to preventing homelessness.
Our organization is Georgia’s largest facilitator of emergency and transitional housing for people living with HIV/AIDS. Because we serve as Atlanta’s centralized intake and housing information and referral agency, we are able to assist over 1,500 individuals each year and make an important difference in their lives.
