North Fulton Partner Celebration 2023

Fulton County leaders visited the Chattahoochee Nature Center in Roswell May 24th for a celebration event honoring 25 North Fulton nonprofit groups for their service to the community.

The celebration came after the Fulton County Board of Commissioners voted to approve more than $7 million in grant funding for non-profit groups like the Chattahoochee Nature Center and North Fulton Community Charities as part of the county’s Community Services Program and Veterans Services Program at a meeting May 17.

Speaking to the gathered crowd of representatives and local leaders at the center’s riverside pavilion, District 2 Commissioner Bob Ellis said Fulton County would not function efficiently without the nonprofit partners that provide a safety net for some of the county’s most vulnerable residents.

Along with InCommunity, other nonprofits honored at the event included Camp Kudzu, Champions Community Foundation, Community Assistance Center, Erin’s Hope for Friends, Jewish Family and Career Services, Los Ninos Primero, Mary Hall Freedom Village, North Fulton Child Development Association, North Metro Miracle League, Raksha Inc, Rach Out and Read, Revved Up Kids, Senior Services North Fulton, STAR House Foundation, The Drake House, The Lionheart School, The Summit Counseling Center and U Hope CDC.
