Today, City of Refuge celebrated the ribbon cutting at “The 1343,” our new 37,000-square-foot Transformation Center, marking a significant step forward in revitalizing the 30314 community.

This three-story facility will expand access to critical resources, including 25 units of affordable housing, a fresh market, mental health clinic, community bank, and an entrepreneurship and business incubation hub. We were honored to welcome Atlanta Mayor @andreforatlanta to lead the ribbon-cutting ceremony alongside community leaders, partners, and supporters. This project represents the power of collaboration and a shared commitment to creating pathways to stability, opportunity, and long-term transformation. We extend our sincere gratitude to our partners and supporters, including @chickfila, @invest_atlanta, @genuine.parts.company, @delta, @truist, @ga_power, @peachstatehp, @cfgreateratlanta, @deltacommunity, @fhlbankatlanta, and the Chesnut Family Foundation, along with the many individuals and foundations whose generosity made this milestone possible. Thank you to City of Refuge leadership, our Board of Directors, and Capital Campaign Committee for their vision and stewardship. Today is an exciting day — and a powerful step forward for our community.
