Donations needed for DeKalb college-bound kids

A “trunk drive” that seeks to collect gifts for college-bound students in DeKalb County, ends July 25.

Donations can include gift cards, household items and toiletries. Gifts will be distributed to 100 needy students who begin their freshman year of college this fall.

Government drop-off spots are the Maloof government building, 1300 Commerce Dr., Decatur; the DeKalb Superior Court Clerk’s office in the county courthouse on McDonough Street in downtown Decatur; and the Porter Sanford performing arts center, 3181 Rainbow Dr., south of Decatur.
