GSCC's 4th Annual Backpack and School Supply Giveaway

We are getting ready for our 4th annual Backpack and School Supply Giveaway. We need your help as usual. As most of you know, GSCC has adopted A.L.Holmes Elementary/Middle School. Though we know we wont be able to provide supplies for all the kids but we want to be able to give to our Garden Clubs. 60 kids will need backpacks and supplies. Again we need your help. You can donate through Paypal or send a check or drop off or I can arrange for pick up. Thanks again family. Let's help these kids start the school year off right!!!!

Before and After Community Room

We are making progress!!!

The New GreenHouse Park

The record label for the english music group Above & Beyond shot a music video next door to th community center on Sept 4 2010. The idea of the video was to transform a vacant weed and trash filled lot into something that would benifit the neighborhood. So here is the new GreenHouse Park!!!! This winter if we can get some topsoil we will grow lettuce and spinach in our new 8'x20' greenhouse.
The song for the video is called On A Good Day. Look out for it. We will post it as soon as we get it.

Thank You Above & Beyond!!!!!!!!!!

3rd Annual BackPack and School Supply Giveaway

Back to School Time is Approaching!!



Time to Start Planning our



3rd Annual BackPack and School Supply Giveaway

August 29, 2010



We are calling on the "Friends of GSCC" again

to assist with this very important event.



We plan on distributing approximately 150 fully stocked backpacks this year and we hope that our supporters can find it in their heart to donate either cash or items from the list below. Any amount or quantity will help us. Our budget is very limited, but the need is growing. We want to help the children get a good start in their school year.



Many stores like WalMart have begun their school supply sales and items can be purchased for really low prices. These sales change week to week, but supplies will diminish quickly.



More information on the 3rd Annual BackPack and School Supply Giveaway will be forthcoming in the near future, but please try to help us out if you can. To donate goods, choose from the list below and call Mark at 313-452-0684 or Phyllis at 586-915-8946 to arrange for pick-up or drop-off at the Garden.



To donate through Paypal please go to our blog: georgiastreetgarden.blogspot.com
