I love to see the creative ways our community comes together to support students - and yesterday the @communityfoundationmaconcounty & myself are proud to highlight a collaborative effort led by the Mamie D. Hayes Educational Foundation, one of only 5% of private foundations in the United States led by women of color. The MDH Foundation, located here in Decatur, focuses on awarding scholarships to students, professional development funds for teachers and conducting educational seminars. The MDH Foundation partnered with Rodney Walker, Courtney L Carson and Mayor Julie Moore Wolfe to provide 100 backpacks filled with school supplies to youth at the @bgcdecatur #BlackPhilanthropyMonth #GreatFuturesStartHere #maconcountygives #facesofphilanthropy (at Boys & Girls Club of Decatur, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDjXls9guyr/?igshid=1az3cexhdi6hy
