Atlanta, GA – August 2025 — The City of South Fulton was transformed into a hub of hope, laughter, and community spirit as Big Jerry Clark hosted his Legendary Back-to-School Giveaway and what a day it was! From the moment I stepped into the space, the atmosphere was alive with energy, positivity, and the kind of joy that only comes from a community pouring love into its next generation.

🌟 A Day Full of Love, Laughter, and Legendary Moments

Big Jerry didn’t hold back. He, along with community leaders Carmalitha Gumbs and Helen Willis, created an experience that went far beyond backpacks and pencils. This event was a full-on celebration. One that aimed to send kids back to school feeling confident, celebrated, and supported.

Here’s what made it unforgettable:

🎒 Free Backpacks + School Supplies for students across the South Fulton community.
🍕 Free food from local legends like Big Dave’s Cheesesteaks and Goodfella’s Pizza.
🎧 Music that moved the crowd, courtesy of Hot 107.9 and the vibes set by Trap Fairy Princess.
🎮 Video game fun on PlayStation and Xbox, made possible by the good folks at @soleplayatl.
🎽 A clothing shopping spree raffle sponsored by @whatshappeningatl, because style matters, especially on the first day of school.
💇🏽 Fresh haircuts by Above the Bar and The Swag Shop, keeping the kids looking and feeling their best.
🎨 Face painting, bounce houses, and pure joy at every corner.

💬 What It Felt Like

From the outside, it may have looked like a school supply drive. But the second you stepped in, you could feel it: this was a movement. DJs were spinning, interviews were happening, and the air was thick with positivity. I felt like I had walked into something bigger than just an event. I walked into a reflection of Atlanta at its best: community-first, culture-rich, and full of heart.
