HELP SUPPORT ADVANCE MEMPHIS! Work it Memphis! is a new kind of fundraiser, designed to harness the power of the internet and social media and raise money to help Advance Memphis expand capacity to serve more people. Two weeks ago, people spent the night outside our building in order to secure their place in our upcoming class. People WANT to work, and Advance Memphis wants to grow our programs to serve more people. We need YOUR help to raise money to make it happen.

THANKS AGAIN TO 2PC & CITYSERVE!
As you may have heard, Advance was blessed to have a LOT of help during 2PC's CityServe weekend. Volunteers from 2PC's Emmaus class and from our neighborhood came to help and we accomplished an incredible amount of work in a short amount of time. Advance has been blessed recently by the addition of a photographer to our family: staff member Mike Shaw recently married Gretchen who is a talented photographer.

WAREHOUSE READINESS CLASS GRADUATES
Advance Memphis is again providing advanced Warehouse Readiness training, including fork lift certification, for some of our Jobs for Life graduates. 8 students graduated from this program on Thursday and will receive raises in their positions with Advance Memphis Staffing. Our prayer is that they will also now be more eligible for full time, permanent positions that become available. We are proud of you, grads!
