Primrose School of Roswell North Donates Over $1900 to North Fulton Community Charities

ROSWELL, Ga. (July 12, 2016) – Primrose School of Roswell North, an AdvancED-accredited private preschool, is dedicated to teaching its students about helping others and giving back to the community. This month, the School focused on North Fulton Community Charities (NFCC), a local 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose goal is to build self-sufficiency and prevent homelessness and hunger in the Fulton County community. Primrose Roswell Owners Larry and Lynn Manning and Vice President Jackie Brannon met with Vonda Malbrough, Director of Development for NFCC, to donate a check for $1940.58.

“Caring and Giving are cornerstone values we teach children at Primrose,” said Lynn Manning. “We believe that character development, along with a robust academic program, is essential to preparing our children for the future.”

The donated funds were raised throughout the spring and early summer months at Primrose Roswell. The School held an Original Works art fundraiser, in which students created handprint artwork and parents ordered personalized items emblazoned with their child’s artwork, the proceeds of which were put into to the Spring Fling donation. The remainder of the funds came from the proceeds of Primrose Roswell’s first annual Spring Fling, a carnival-style event that included bounce houses, raffles, a face painter, a DJ and more. Throughout the fundraising period, students were reminded that the money they raised would help others in need.

Primrose Roswell made an equal donation to The Primrose Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that was created to combine fundraising efforts from individual Primrose schools across the nation. This year, the Primrose Foundation donated funds raised to Save the Children.

NFCC was incorporated in 1983 and gained 501(c)(3) recognition in 1988. Their mission is to build self-sufficiency and prevent homelessness and hunger in our community by providing emergency assistance and enrichment programs. To learn more about their programs, visit www.nfcchelp.org.

The Primrose Balanced Learning© curriculum highlights the importance of character development and giving back to the community through its Happy Hearts program, along with a proven academic curriculum and enrichment programs.
