The DeKalb Community Advisory Board and DeKalb Prevention Coalition Monday presented a check for $1,100 to Annette Greek, Treasurer for the DeKalb Foster Children’s Fund.
Those making the presentation were Norene Puckett, DeKalb Drug Court Coordinator and Vice President of the Community Advisory Board, Kristy Longmire, Drug Court Case Manager, Susan Gray of Haven of Hope, Elise Driver, Coordinated School Health Coordinator, and Cindy Childers, Assistant School Health Coordinator.
“The DeKalb Community Advisory Board had a fundraiser back in February for the DeKalb Foster Children’s Fund. We’re here today presenting the $1,100 that we raised which was donated to help the children in DeKalb County,” said Puckett.
“Our group’s mission is to network with any of our community members. We have people representing different agencies including the Drug Court Program, Haven of Hope, the School Board, the Food Pantry, and the Library. We have members all across the county and our goal is to identify any needs in the community and use our different agency’s resources and others to fill those needs,” said Puckett.
