“This says everything about the spirit of Atlanta,” said Condace Pressley, director of Community Affairs for Cox Media Group Atlanta. “Atlanta has the reputation as the city to busy to hate and we want to show how wonderful our city is and how wonderful our audiences are.”

She said Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms even suggested a friendly competition between Greek letter organizations to “rise up and help our neighbors in need.”

Last year, 13 tractor trailer packed with water and supplies made it way to help people in Texas in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, which resulted in unprecedented rainfall and flooding and sent tens of thousands of people to shelters.

The need is for cases of packaged bottled water, unopened boxes of diapers and household cleaning supplies.

Drop off locations:

WSB Studios, 1601 West Peachtree St. N.E., Atlanta.

Caring for Others warehouse on 3537 Browns Mill Rd., Atlanta .

Pressley said there is also a need for volunteers able to pick up packages of bottled water and help load the tractor trailers.

There will be an escort by law enforcement from Atlanta through the drop-off points in the Carolinas.
