Volunteers at Atlanta Public Schools’ Hope-Hill Elementary in the Grady cluster are seeking donations to support an influx of new students this year.

They’re looking for monetary donations to pay for field trips, holiday baskets for needy families, teacher appreciation events and other items. Donations of school supplies are welcome too.

For more information or to donate, visit the Hope-Hill Foundation website (www.hopehillfoundation.org). Contact Billy Hungeling at chair@hopehillfoundation.org with any questions.
