'Jeans For Genes' Benefits Cherokee County Seniors

CANTON, GA -- Cherokee County Clerk of Courts Patty Baker and her staff are sponsoring more than 15 senior citizens for the Christmas season this year.

The Clerk of Courts staff’s charitable project, “Jeans for Genes,” has already raised roughly $1,000 to directly benefit clients of Cherokee County Senior Services.

The donated funds are raised by Clerk of Courts staff members who contribute $3 each week to wear jeans at work each Friday. The cause to raise money for the community’s seniors is amazing, and "the team effort is remarkable," the office said.

"It is a project that many hold dear to their hearts," it added.

The Clerk of Courts Office has created arrangements to provide more than 15 seniors citizens with "warm, new heartfelt presents for Christmas," the office continued.
