Gimme 5 & get into the action!

Thank you for assisting in the 3rd Annual “Gimme 5 for Education” Campaign! You should receive your campaign envelopes in January. With only a donation of $5.00 your money supports:

  • Teacher Impact Grants
    Over $80,000 has been given in 2007 to Teachers in Cobb County School District through programs from the Foundation.
     

  • Senior Scholarships
    Two Seniors from each High School is awarded $1000.00 from the Foundation.
     

  • ASP Scholarships and Grants
    Over $5000 has been given to our youngest students via ASP Scholarships. When a parent has to make a choice one month to get a car repair or send a child to ASP, the Foundation helps. Students are dancing at some schools via the ASP Grant program from the Foundation.

Yes, just $5.00 keeps these programs growing each year. You can make a difference with only $5.00.

If you would like to pay by check, please make the check out to your school with "Foundation Gimme 5" in the memo line.

Thank you for supporting the Cobb Schools Foundation & for making this campaign a success!
