Accent Home Staging, Partners Amy Powers & Laura Jones.

Setting a High Standard in Metro Atlanta

Their business is a big part of their life, but it's not the only or most important part.
As active participants in their community Laura and Amy value volunteerism and localism.

Volunteerism
Laura and Amy are very like minded in their services to the community, they have worked in many volunteer efforts together. They each share a desire to volunteer and give back to the community.  The three primary non-profits they have worked with are:

1. MOPS International since 2002 - 2007: 
• Laura participated in a local MOPS ministry working with mothers of preschoolers, she ran the MOPPETS Program (for the preschoolers) for several years for over 120 families. She later became a Team Leader focusing on building one-on-one relationships with young moms in order to identify ways to best meet their needs. She was a valuable Mentor for the women in the program.
• Amy began her volunteer career in MOPS as a Creative Activities Coordinator, teaching fun and easy art, decorative or practical projects to encourage moms to explore their wild side. She then became the Publicity Coordinator and later a Coordinator over the first MOPS@nite program in the area for Single and Working mothers of preschoolers.  In 2003, she became a Council Coordinator for MOPS International and in 2005 became the Area Coordinator (AC) for Western Europe, Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi. As an AC, she was responsible for educating, encouraging and leading the 300+ Steering Teams and 12 Field Leaders to be the best moms and leaders they can be through local, national and international opportunities. A fun task that equipped her for today's work in Accent Home Staging.
2. AWANA Programs since 2002:
• Laura and Amy are very active at their church, providing volunteer time in the children's AWANA program. 
3. UPWARD Sports since 2004:
• Both Laura & Amy team up every year to coach Basketball in the UPWARD program. Yes, basketball! Laura uses her high school 'All-Star' basketball experience in coaching and Amy does whatever Laura ask her to, HA!. They work very well together. Laura has also co-coached flag football. Amy has ventured out and was the first Soccer Commissioner for UPWARD in her area and in 2007 coached cheer leading.
