STOPPING THE SPREAD,
BUT NOT THE SUPPORT

The Empty Stocking Fund is committed to protecting the health and safety of our volunteers, staff and community. In response to the COVID19 pandemic, we have implemented strict policies that adhere to federal and state guidelines.

Social Distancing
ESF will follow Social Distancing Guidelines based on CDC recommendations.

Currently, volunteer shift sizes are limited so participants can safely socially distance. Because we have a large space and can easily separate groups, we may schedule two small groups at the same time.

Social Distancing markers and signage will be posted throughout the facility.

Temperature Screening
Using no-contact infrared digital thermometers, ESF staff will check the temperature of all volunteers before they enter the building. Following the CDC guidelines, anyone with a temperature above 100.4 will be asked to leave and reschedule their volunteer shift (a minimum of 14 days later).

Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)
Masks will be required in the facility at all times. If you have your own mask, please bring it with you. If you do not have a mask, we will provide one for you. In addition, we will have gloves and plenty of hand sanitizer available.

Post-Shift Facility Cleaning and Sanitization
Designated trash cans are placed in the warehouse and the lobby for PPE disposal and will be emptied immediately at the end of each shift.

Volunteers will be asked to place all tape guns, box cutters, and other tools used in a designated area so that they can be disinfected by staff.

All surfaces will be cleaned using a CDC approved disinfectant.

Post Shift Reporting
Approximately two weeks after your shift, ESF will send you an email asking you to confirm that you have not been diagnosed with or experienced symptoms of Covid19. Should you have any concerns about your exposure before, during or after your shift, we ask that you contact us immediately at (404) 876-8697.

SPONSOR -A- CHILD CAMPAIGNS

Sponsor-A-Child Campaigns enable individuals and organizations to maximize their impact by enlisting the support of others. Campaigns may be led at local businesses, global corporations, civic or religious organizations, or simply among friends and family. Some raise hundreds of dollars while others raise thousands, and each does it a little differently. It can be as simple as creating an online donation page and sharing it via email or social media, or as complex as hosting fundraising events like holiday parties, bake sales, raffles, etc. As a campaign leader, YOU decide what works best for you and your organization.

LEAR NOME

JROTC DRIVE

Young People Helping Young People

Every year more than 2,500 cadets representing 40 metro Atlanta high school ROTC programs take to the street to share The Empty Stocking Fund’s story and collect donations on our behalf. This long-standing tradition that dates back to the 1940s was established based on the community spirit of young people helping young people. Over a two-day period, thousands of volunteers, most of whom are JROTC cadets from metro-Atlanta high schools, collect donations throughout their communities. Representing the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines, the cadets raise nearly $100,000 for the organization – enough to provide gift packages to 5,000 children.

Through its Family2Family project, WSB-TV supports the cadets’ efforts by increasing awareness of the program. As one of the project’s sponsors, Kroger allows the cadets to fundraise onsite at more than 50 metro area stores.

2021 Campaign Registration

This year’s campaign will run from October 15th through December 15th with the primary drive taking place November 5th, 6th, and 7th.
