Participants can donate to have these eye-catching purple potties moved from one yard to another, fostering a sense of unity as the potty travels through the community.

Raising Hope, One Helping Hand at a Time
Hands of a Warrior is the outreach by the Sheppard Pride Community Center Volunteers to make a profound difference in the lives of victims of abuse and other circumstances beyond their control. The Sheppard Pride Community Center was established by the City of Andersonville in 2023. With a deep commitment to provide support to vulnerable families, the Sheppard Pride Community Center volunteers organized Hands of a Warrior. We firmly believe that together, we can make a lasting impact on families in and beyond our own community, giving them a brighter, more hopeful future.
We host a variety of engaging and impactful events throughout the year, each designed to create community involvement, demonstrate solidarity, and raise essential funds for organizations and programs dedicated to helping families. By participating in our events, donors and supporters actively contribute to the wellbeing and empowerment of families, ensuring they receive the resources they need to thrive.
With every event we host, we get one step closer to a world where a lack of resources and support no longer creates victims but instead warriors, resilient and ready to conquer life’s many challenges. Stand with us, lend a hand, and be part of the change – because Hands of a Warrior is about believing in the power of collective compassion to transform lives.
