Fall Breakfast 2024

Past Events

Dec 1

The Life House Atlanta Team hosted its 2nd Annual Fall Breakfast in the Georgia Aquarium Oceans Ballroom on Tuesday, September 24, 2024. With over 125 guests and a handful of playful Beluga whales in the audience, Guest Speaker Abby Burle, and Keynote Speaker Lanise Shortell, RN, CHPPN, CPLC presented an outstanding program on the urgent need for a pediatric respite house in Georgia. Life House Atlanta’s vision was captured by a beautifully animated video by Noble Arc Design Architectural Firm. An overview of potential properties was displayed by Massell Commercial Real Estate. Four pediatric respite houses that are currently up and running in other parts of the country graciously shared video clips to provide a visual representation of what our team plans to bring to Georgia.

Guests responded to the passionate plea to invest in Georgia’s families with over $50,000 raised to date. This brings Life House Atlanta further along in its journey to opening its doors to children with medically complex conditions and their families.

The Life House Atlanta team would like to express gratitude to the following vendors for orchestrating our program:
