Annual "Give a Kid a
Chance Back To School Outreach."
July 19, 2008
Two locations: the Boys and Girls Club in Canton and
His Hands Church in Woodstock. This is an outreach that provides
kids who otherwise might not have what they need, with
everything they need to start the school year right (medical and
dental screening, backpacks with school supplies, clothes, new
undies and socks, Bibles, etc.)
We need Christian Volunteers who can smile and love on a kid and
his/her family. Volunteers should be HS+ in age.

The Cherokee
County Animal Shelter is looking for volunteers to help with
an innovative program to train shelter dogs so that they will be
better candidates for adoption. Volunteers will act as
instructors for Doggie U. Volunteers and will need to commit at
least two Saturdays per month that they can work at the shelter
for an hour or two to train dogs. No experience in dog training
is required. For more information, or to volunteer,
contact Bob and Beth O'Brien at 678-445-4544 or go to
