CAC continues to aid those that need it: food,
clothing, and financial assistance remain at the
core of our programs.
We see the economic landscape changing, and we
are changing with it.
Our ability to respond to the needs of our community
has created amazing returns on our efforts (and your
investment) this year:
|
-
Our thrift store took community donations and
clothed our neighbors in need for free while
producing $250,000+ of revenue to be used for
other CAC programs and operations.
-
We opened a new Career Center to help those in
untenable financial situations find a
better-paying job to support their families.
Through a continuously-growing network of local
businesses like Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta
and State Farm, volunteer Career Advocates, and
a partnership with Goodwill of North Georgia,
hundreds of jobseekers have improved their
skills, learned insider tips and tricks, and
made connections to employers that have resulted
in new career paths to help them weather the
current economic landscape.
-
Our Adult Education program added new computer
classes for an ever-changing workplace to outfit
students with practical, marketable skills.
These courses would normally cost hundreds of
dollars, but are offered free of charge thanks
to donations and volunteers. XXX adults took
advantage of the many classes offered by CAC
this year.

Together, we make a significant difference in the
lives of others. Families are stronger, children are
taken care of, and adults can see the light at the
end of the tunnel as they pursue opportunities to
improve their financial stability.

As you consider your year-end contributions, we hope
you will be inspired by the difference you can make
with a gift to CAC.
