SOUTHWIRE DONATES $7,500 FOR OUR EXPANSION

NORTH GEORGIA TURF SOD FARMS DONATES SOD

Even with the rains this spring, the progress of our expansion is progressing very well.  Primary to the progress is the Fundraising Committee activities! They planned and administered a wonderful USO style event at AMVETS that produced over $5,300 and their contacts have produced individual business gifts.

We needed $21,926 to pay for the work completed thus far and we had received contributions of $14,500. Bill Hearnburg (Fundraising Committee) met with Southwire and on Wednesday Gary Leftwich delivered us a check for $7,500. This brought our donations thus far to $22,000. THANK YOU SOUTHWIRE!!! 

 

On Thursday, Director Ronnie Pate met with North Georgia Turf Farms about getting 4,300 square feet of sod to cover the disturbed soil of the construction. They are DONATING over $3,000 worth of sod.  THANK YOU NORTH GEORGIA TURF

We now will seek Inmate labor for the preparation of the soil and laying of the sod. THANK YOU CARROLL COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

CCVMP works because of the individual member involvement!!!

 

Now - our remaining need to complete is about $30,000.  We need our members to be looking for businesses, clubs, etc. that might have an interest in showing honor to our Veterans.  Then refer your suggestions to Charles Griffin (Fundraising Committee) 770-855-0291 so that we can contact them to see if we can meet them, give a presentation to their group or just explain who we are and what we are doing.
