Thank you to the Creative Arts Guild and Jonas Foundation for championing the arts in our community!



Each member wrote up to four notes filled with encouragement, gratitude, and well-wishes. Their goal: to learn how to serve, thrive, and lead within our communityāone small act of kindness at a time.
These cards were a simple way to offer comfort and remind others that even little acts of service can make a big impact!




Wishing everyone a joyful and restful holiday surrounded by love and gratitude!

REACH Georgia is a needs-based mentorship and scholarship program that supports students from 8th grade through high school. Scholars commit to staying on track academically, demonstrating good attendance and behavior, and taking part in mentoring and coaching along the way. When they complete the program, they earn a $10,000 scholarship that helps open the door to college opportunities across Georgia.
In a few weeks, weāll celebrate our new scholars at our annual REACH Signing Ceremony. Weāll also recognize our graduating REACH Scholars, the seniors who have completed the program and are preparing for their next chapter. It is always a meaningful moment for our students and their families, and weāre excited to share this milestone with our community.
Great things are ahead for them, and we canāt wait to cheer them on!
