Kids for a Cause: Over 900 Students Give Back to Community Through Various Projects

Written by Marketing Intern Rose Provine

More than 900 students from Harrison High School in Kennesaw, Georgia participated in the Sixth Annual Community Service Day last Saturday. The students joined with many locals in the effort to make a difference in their own community. 

The students spread out over 30 different projects including visiting nursing homes, landscaping at Harrison High School, park renovations, volunteering at MUST ministries, and holding a pet adoption on the school campus to help the school's animal rescue club, Paws for a Cause. 

The students were not alone in the effort; parents, teachers and bus drivers participated to ensure that the day was a success.

This annual community service day was the idea of Dutch Bickley, a parent-member of Harrison School Council. Besides giving back to the community, they hope to teach their students how to work together and serve others. 

It looks like the students at Harrison High School were able to accomplish these goals set out for them. What can you do to make a difference in your community?
