BE AN
AMAZING ATLANTAN – STAND UP AND VOLUNTEER!
Atlanta participates in
The Amazing Spider-Man™
national volunteer day to benefit Stand Up To Cancer
WHO:
Join Sony Pictures Entertainment, Hands On Atlanta and the Office of Mayor Kasim Reed to celebrate the hero in all of us by volunteering on
The Amazing Spider-Man™ “Be Amazing, Stand Up and Volunteer” Day. On Tuesday, June 26th,
people of all ages in cities across the country will come together to
give their time and energy to help their neighbors – and the day will
support Stand
Up To Cancer, which funds accelerated and innovative cancer research.
Atlantans can log on to
www.BeAmazing2012.com to find out more information on the initiative in Atlanta and nationwide.
WHAT:
Atlanta’s
“Be Amazing, Stand Up and Volunteer” opportunities are highlighted by
beautification projects at the Grove Park recreation center with the
City’s Camp Best
Friends youth participants. Activities at the centers include interior
and exterior painting, repairing and staining benches, landscaping,
building shelves, painting murals and more. Materials will be provided.
In honor of the
volunteers, Sony Pictures Entertainment will make a donation to Stand Up
To Cancer (SU2C), an organization very close to one of the producers of
the film, Laura Ziskin. A founding member of SU2C,
Laura lost her battle with cancer in 2011. Registered Atlanta volunteers will also receive advance screening passes to see
The Amazing Spider-Man™ before it arrives in theaters on July 3rd and a “Be Amazing, Stand Up and Volunteer” t-shirt. Registration for all volunteer opportunities will be hosted online by Hands On Atlanta at
