Help beautify a deserving school
Because of the shared strength and civic pride that occurs whenever the community supports local schools, Georgia United Credit Union invite volunteers to get involved in their 3rd annual School Crashers school improvement project at Oakcliff Elementary School this summer. Built in 1965 and converted to a theme school in 1996, the facility has 740 students and 80 faculty and staff. Volunteers are needed for painting, landscaping and general construction. There is also a need for bi-lingual volunteers since many of the volunteer parents will be Hispanic.
Where: Oakcliff Elementary School, 3151 Willow Oak Way, Doraville
When: July 22 and 23
