Esther Day 2014

In the August of 2010, a Nerdfighter by the name of Esther Earl passed away. I didn't get to know her personally, but, by her book This Star Won't Go Out, I've learned a lot about her and somehow feel like I did know her. Before her passing, she was given the opportunity to make her birthday a holiday within the Nerdfighter community (which included picking a theme). The theme she chose was love of friends and family and the general platonic love. This holiday is known as Esther Day. To celebrate, the Metro Atlanta Harry Potter Alliance is gathering arts and crafts supplies to be donated to a local Children's Hospital. We are spending July spreading the word, and donating will begin in August. So, if you want to donate, contact me through the email attached to this blog and contact me. Remember that everything you donate must be brand new. Thanks for the support!

DFTBA,

Welcome!!!

Welcome to the Metro Atlanta Harry Potter Alliance's blog! The Harry Potter Alliance (HPA) is a group of people fighting for social justice. We've worked on many campaigns that have worked to improve literacy, immigration, economic equality, and general social quality. On this blog, you can read about the work the HPA has been doing and how the Metro Atlanta Chapter has been involved with that work. You can also receive updates and event information if we do anything separate from the HPA. If you have any questions, email metroatlantahpa@gmail.com.

DFTBA,
