School Supply Drive Reminder

The flyer did not attach last week, so I’m posting a reminder that we are currently collecting school supplies for local schools and have pasted the text of the flyer here. Donations will be collected through September 17. If you would like printed flyers to post around campus, please let me know.

In Celebration of Dr. Donald Green’s Presidential Inauguration, Please Join Us in a School Supply Drive to Benefit Local School Children

Sponsored by Georgia Highlands College Faculty, Staff, & Students

As faculty, staff, and students return for fall classes with fresh pens in hand, shiny new notebooks, and the coolest backpacks around, let us all take a minute to reflect on the fact that there are many families in our communities who are unable to provide basic school supplies to their children. In light of this need, Georgia Highlands College, in celebration of Dr. Donald Green’s Presidential Inauguration, is sponsoring a school supply drive to collect much-needed supplies for local children. Working with the Family Connections affiliates in Bartow, Cobb, Douglas, Floyd, and Paulding, we will collect and distribute a variety of supplies to where they are needed most. Just as each of our campuses are unique, so are the needs within each community. Below you will find a list of supplies requested by campus, as well as drop-off locations.
