​Let's work together to make Christmas a bit brighter for some Cobb County families
​​
​Marietta, GA - ​​​​​​​​​​​​Dramatic temperature drops this week remind us that, for some Cobb County residents, a warm winter coat becomes a must-have. And with cuts in federal aid dollars and social service programs, as well as escalating healthcare and food costs, the prospect of an empty Christmas stocking is very real for many of our neighbors’ children.
​
Indivisible Cobb wants to change that for at least some local families.
​
Over the next two weeks, the group will be collecting new/gently used coats and toys at several functions and they welcome others in our community to join in and make this cause part of their holiday season giving.
​
“A key aspect to what we do as an organization is to create and sponsor programs focused on the needs of Cobb County residents,” said Stacey Parlotto, a leader of Indivisible Cobb. “While our focus remains on advocating for progressive changes in our government, taking care of our neighbors has become a natural offshoot from our efforts. Our recent holiday meal initiative with GLAHR, a program from paying down school luncheon debts and an ongoing food drive in collaboration with the East Cobb Y are benefitting a number of families. So why not bring attention to this as well?”
​
Indivisible Cobb will be collecting items during several get-togethers this month on December 9, 10 and 13. For details on how you can participate, send an email to indivisiblecobb@proton.me and we can coordinate including your donation. Let us work together to help others stay warm this winter and help make kids’ Christmas a bit brighter!
