Gwinnett Kids Think Inside The Box To Collect Sweaters For Seniors.
August 17th, 2009
Let’s give a shout out to the principal, teachers, staff and of course, the K-5 students at R.L. Norton Elementary in Snellville! On Friday, August 15, the Gwinnett County School joined our efforts to collect new and ‘like -new’ sweaters for Gwinnett County Senior Services.
Also, on Friday, “Sweaters For Seniors” made the 6 o’clock news! (And 5 AM, noon, 11 PM, too) The sweater drive was featured on CBS Atlanta’s “Good Deeds.” The ongoing segment of anchorperson, Tracye Hutchins highlights unique and giving efforts made in the Atlanta metro area. ”Sweaters” is thankful to have been featured by Ms. Hutchins on “Better Mornings” for the 2nd year. Thank you Tracye, Steve (CBS interview/camera man) and CBS Atlanta for helping us spread the news about “S4S.” Also thanks to Tom Balsamides at Chick-Fil-A on Hwy 124 and Brad Spratte, Hwy 78 for partnering with us on this much needed project for Gwinnett’s aging population.
