Class of 2018-2019 Community Service Team
For the third year, we have an incredible group of young men and women on our high school Community Service Team! These budding philanthropists are learning to serve on a board of directors, conduct site visits to nonprofit agencies, award a grant and gain exposure to nonprofit agencies that serve Coweta and its citizens.
Orren Jones
Meet our new Executive Director, Orren Jones. Orren is a lifelong resident of Coweta County and has wonderful experience working in the nonprofit world. Please don’t hesitate to introduce yourself to Orren or drop by to say hello. We are excited about her leadership as the Coweta Community Foundation enters its third decade of serving our community.
“I am thrilled to be a part of The Coweta Community Foundation and am honored to have the opportunity to serve this incredible county and community that is near and dear to my heart. I’m very optimistic that we will continue to see the foundation expand its influence across the county and assist our partners in continuing to do the wonderful work that they do. I hope to see our leaders and citizens step up to help us along the way.”
Howard Warner Playground
When the community comes together you can accomplish anything! For our 20th anniversary project The Coweta Community Foundation decided it would build a playground just as it did when we launched the Foundation in 1997. The Howard Warner School was restored and the Newnan Coweta Boys and Girls Club opened its second location there, The Howard Warner Playground on Savannah Street in Newnan was officially dedicated during ceremonies on August 27, 2018. This playground will serve the families of The Chalk Level Community and the students at the Boys and Girls Club. Thanks to all of our financial sponsors and volunteers! No matter how big or small, coming together always brings big dreams to life!
By Kids For Kids
CCF'S BY KIDS, FOR KIDS PROGRAM OFFERS FREE PIGGY BANKS — The Coweta Community Foundation is now providing piggy banks for kids under the age of 14 to fill with change. Several dates will be available for kids to drop off their deposits, and they will even have their own passbooks to help them keep track of the amounts they are depositing and the total balance of how much money they have given throughout the year. Next year, the children themselves will vote on a nonprofit that serves children, and a grant for the total amount given by the kids that year will go to the organization of their choice. Banks, passbooks and further information about this program may be obtained by contacting the Foundation.
