Community Makeover 2010


Community Makeover plans are in the works. This event grows each year. This year, there are already over 60 churches signed up which means hundreds and hundreds of projects all over Atlanta.

A Fresh Hope is honored to participate in the Community Makeover. We will be working at Compton Elementary School in Powder Springs, GA from July 23rd - July 25th. Sign-ups for this event will begin shortly. This is a family friendly project.

We will be landscaping, painting doors and walls, cleaning a clothes closet, decorating, painting quotations on the walls, etc.


Donations we need for the Compton project:
***Landscaping plants/flowers
***Gently used clothes and shoes for the clothes closet. New socks and Underwear.
***Treasure box items. These can be Happy Meal type toys, pencils, stickers, etc.
***Paint rollers, brushes and drop cloths.
***Individually wrapped snacks, lotions, etc. for welcome back teacher baskets.


We will also be hosting the Back to School Drive 2010 on Saturday, July 24th at West Ridge Church. We will provide new back packs and school supplies to 1500 children in the Cobb, Paulding, Douglas and Bartow areas.
