The East Cobb Middle School PTSA is teaming up with the school’s social worker to sponsor what it’s calling an “Angel Tree” program to support families in need during the holiday season.
According to Monica Bright, the ECMS social worker, each “angel” has an item on a family’s wish list that typically range from $10-$20 and are personalized to student needs.
She said Walmart and Kroger gift cards in $20 increments are being accepted to help families purchase food during the winter break.
All items purchased for the Angel Tree students must be returned wrapped to the front office at ECMS (825 Terrell Mill Road) by Dec. 7. Bright says to make sure the angel is attached to the item so it can be distributed to the correct family.
For information about the Angel Tree program contact Monica Bright at Monica.Bright@cobbk12.org.
