The Atlanta Silverbacks are pleased with the addition of the Silverbacks School Partnership program that launched in March of 2007. The program, which partners the Silverbacks with 10 community elementary schools, has been developed to meet the high demands for player appearances and donations; in addition, the program will increase the accessibility of players as community role models. The program includes a number of events throughout the year, providing a consistent, developed relationship between the children of the community and the Silverbacks. Each school participating in the Silverbacks School Partnership program will experience the following:

- The Silverbacks will come to the school and conduct a Nutrition Assembly discussing the importance of healthy eating habits and the major food groups.

- The Silverbacks will participate in three-to-four events a year at the school, including Career Day and Field Day.

- School Group Night and Fundraiser

- Two complimentary season tickets for the school to use in auctions/benefits or for student, staff of volunteer rewards
