The Community Outreach committee is working on multiple projects to give back to our community. 

 

 

Shred Event -  We plan on making this a large community event with the help of some of our affiliates.  The date is set for Friday, October 4th from 11:00am to 2:00pm at the L&N Depot.  In order to make this more of a community event, we will also have Smoke Detectors, Weather Radios and batteries as part of the event.  We also plan on having a Food Truck during this time, so you can come by and grab lunch as well.  We will incorporate the Sock Drive into this event as well.  As we get the details worked out, we will keep you updated.

4th Annual Sock Drive - This will be our 4th year and hopefully our best yet.  We collect new, unworn socks for different organizations in our 3 county area.  This drive is held in the fall so that we can get socks delivered to the organizations before Thanksgiving.  We hope that you will support this worthy cause with lots of socks!

Gala of Giving -  The date has been set - Thursday, December 5th at the Hackney Warehouse!  The event last year was a great success and we learned a lot.  We have plans for a bigger, better event with some ugrades.  This event is the main fundraiser for both our Community Outreach committee and Scholarship Fund.  If you have some items that can be auctioned to raise money, we would love to have you reach out to us.  

Senior Needs Drive - This drive will be for the month of July & we need your help!  Help us to provide items to Homebound Seniors in Cherokee, Clay and Graham Counties.  In Cherokee County, there are over 100 seniors unable to get out of their homes.  Volunteers making meal deliveries are sometimes the only people they see. Items will be collected and delivered to the county Nutrition Sites.  We have set up an Amazon Wish List and a QR code for easier shopping, just click on the name.  Completed August 2024!
